Default Coil Per cylinder

Hey I bought an LT1 about 3 months ago looking at doing some mods and found a coil per cylinder conversion. Just wondering if anyone knew if this mod was worth it. Also was wondering about some other mods that could be done.

Well, I don't think anyone has ever done any mods here. You're venturing into unknown territory so you definitely wouldn't find anything about CPC setups or common mods by using the forum search or reading the stickies at the top of this forum.

kidding.... but really, try a few searches, read the stickies, and post back any specific questions and someone will help. there is a lot of information here already, you just have to read it.

Im also thinking about getting some longtubes i've heard that you have to lift the motor in the LT's to get them in just wondering if that is actually true? Or if i should go with ported Intake first or rather which to do first

Its called the LTCC, idk if its worth it per say as much as reliabilty. Getting the high energy spark out of the opti helps retain its life. So your opti will last longer and youll probably notice a smoother idle. As far as othe rmods, do suspension first. That was my mistake. Power is nothing without control...
