MSD LS1/LS6 blaster coil.... MSD finally released a blaster coil for LS1/LS6 motors. Direct bolt-in, will comply with all factory wiring ad electronics while offering a higher output spark. The coil also delivers multiple spark. The coils will also have a seperate connection for an upcoming LS1/LS6 ignition controller. They are sold individually. CARB approval pending. PN 8245. I am going to call and get pricing when the open in an hour...
hmmmm id like to know more about this for when i do my cam and stuff. what other kinda upgrades are there for ignition or computer, besides tuning. if any. sounds like this would be nice though

I just checked....GM list price is $63.75. MSD will be finding out very quickly that they needed a more reasonably priced solution. The only people that will buy those are pros, or people with too much bloody money.

Just make sure they are the correct coil, the square one not the round one, my 5.3 came with the round ones, and I run the square truck coils on my car
Considering you can get truck coils for about half the price, and if your going boost you will have either edit or hp tuner or an aftermarket controller. So no reason to get expensive coils that need the MSD controller to take advantage of any of the features you won't need.
quite a few of us bigger turbo setups are well over 1100 at the motor on factory coils.

Maybe I'll drill them at PRI 
me:So why are your coils better?
them:Because the OEM pieces are inferior, and you can't make over 500HP with them.
me:Oh really, have I got a story for you....
Aftermarket companies are funny sometimes
