You reffering to coil springs? If so, seveal people make them for LS1's. Check out our sponsors sites in the suspension sections...

If you're talking ignition, look here-- this is the only one I've ever seen, and I don't know anyone who's got it, but it's awesome, you better have a damned deep wallet, though <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

You won't find much in the aftermarket because I don't think there's really much to gain over our stock ignition systems.

LG Motorsports sells a B&M New Volt controller that you can add to your system. I didn't think they worked with our ignition, but LG told me that they worked very well with the LS1 ignition and that they saw nice gains from it.

Duh! I am a dumbass, please excuse me.....

The stock GM coils are damn good, and don't really need replacing. Maybe if you were making 900+ rwhp, but anything lower than that and the stock coils are just fine.

I agree. I see no need to mess with the stock LS1 ignition unless you are making ungodly power. Our ignition is one thing that GM finally got right. There really is no room for improvement in this setup...
