Subject: Coil Packs arrived...

The coil packs that I intend to use arrived yesterday while I was 
recovering from the night shift... I obtained a bank of 4 LS-1 
Corvette/Camaro coils off of Ebay.. and while I expected them to be on 
the mounting chassis from the car, I was pleasantly surprised to find 
they came with the wiring harness still attached. These are the coils 
that were specified to be used with Tracy's EC-2 engine controller (at 
least, I sure HOPE I got the right parts this time)...
 
Pictures will follow on tonight, and perhaps by then I will have had an 
opportunity to do some checking of my own.. However, I thought I would 
ping the list for suggestions while I am working/volunteering at the 
Rodeo (Medical/Safety committee at the Houston Livestock Show and 
Rodeo)... The coil bank has a wiring harness that takes 4 wires from 
each coil and merges them into a 7-wire harness/plug. I am  curious as 
to the pin-out of the 7 plug harness, and what the mating plug (to match 
it) identifier would be..  This would permit easier mating to the EC2 
and perhaps make the install a little smoother.  Worst case scenario 
would entail cutting up the harness and making individual connections to 
each coil using harness parts, but I'd rather not do that.
 
The ebay page for this item is:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7959057572

I am not expecting anyone to do my homework for me... rather if someone 
recognizes the part/plug by pic or description and already knows, it 
would be wonderful to share in that knowledge.
 
The entire assembly is a little long/bulky to mount directly on the 
block. I may take the bracket apart and fab my own to mount to the 
engine. Time will tell..  but for the sake of simplicity I would like to 
keep the harness intact.
