MSD coil packs
I'm thinking about upgrading my wires, plugs and coils. Has anyone tried the new MSD coil packs? Or are they just for high hp motors? They sell them for the GenIII LS1.

I have the new MSD catalog and I can buy something else besides the coils that is worth the $700 price tag, the only really special thing about these coils is the extra connection for therr ignition controller. If you are running a carb then I would say these coils are worth but for EFI application a good tune will be far better than an ignition controller.

There was a post about this several full moons ago. From what I was told, the stock coils showed to handle up to 1000HP with no problems.
The MSD coils = red color for a lot of $$$.
The O.E. ignition system on our trucks is well capable of handling what the majority of us are making in power.
Save money for a worthy mod or a visual enhancement.
