Which coil pack do you have?
Doing intel for my upcoming fuel injector change. Figure I'll change the coil packs while I'm under there so I can leave the plenum on for a while. I've found 3 types of coil packs
AC Delco p/n 10467067- $41.09ea Accel p/n 140017- $43.95 MSD Ignition 8226- $44.95 The AC delco are direct replacements I assume. My questions are these: Which type of coil packs do you have? If it's not AC Delco, what are the advantages of using another type, (if any)? ie. MSD last longer or work better. Is there any other manufacturers besides the 3 I listed?

Re: Which coil pack do you have?
I pulled the plenum off after work today (someone before me broke the connector clips off almost every electrical connector - two outside the plenum and two underneath ... good grief )
Anyway, I purchased AC Delcos. I bought them from Amazon for about $34 each. I figure that at 22 years, it's probably cheap insurance. |

MSD 8224 here.
Can't tell much difference from the stock coils but like the red color.

Re: Which coil pack do you have?
Had an original coil go bad a couple years back, knowing I had to pull plenum I decided to put a better performance coil so I changed them all to Accels.
There's a small tab that has to be removed so they can mount next to each other, easily removed with a hacksaw blade in seconds. Didn't notice much difference than stock coil just hope they last longer...jim |

Re: Which coil pack do you have?
Thanks guys. I can't seem to find a p/n for the Screamin demon or the Borg Warner that fits our cars . Most of the sites don't give a sub-model for the Corvette.
