I would stick with your stock LS1 coils. The LS7 coils have a different mounting pattern if I remember correctly. If you are looking for a stronger coil you might look into the truck coils.

I would go with the LS7 coils...Maybe not quite as much output as the D585 coils but still better than the LS1 coils...JMO

^^^Yes...Cylinder shaped like the LS7 coils ( can't remember part # for LS7's off the top of my head) but they have aluminum heat sink fins at the top of them...
