David,

Here's a link that may help for your coil set-up.

http://www.knology.net/~rv7rotary/LS1%20Coil%20Mount.htm

In the link, the connector from sparkplug wire-to-coil is not mentioned
other than when ordering the wire set.  Mention it is for the LS-1 engine,
which dictates the type of connector.

You asked about the 4-pin metri-pak connectors that mate to the coils.  As
far as I know, the Metri-Pak line is the only one designed for the coils.
They're a good, but I think proprietary, design from what I've seen.

Regards,
Chris Sargent

Ed & Dale,

Are you guys talking about the "latest-greatest" ends for LS1 coil wires
that go on the blocks or on the spark plugs?  I must have missed the first
part of this.

I'm getting closer and closer to ordering such stuff - are these Metri-pack
ends , pins, etc, the best you've found so far?

David
