Ed,
Take a look at the coils that Mark Steitle used on his 20B. Think
they are the same
as his Chev or GMC pickup has. As I recall they offered some advantages
over
the coils Tracy and others (including me) have. I believe Mark said they
were
easier to mount (connector on opposite end from plug lead) and used a
less
expensive connector. They also work with the EC-2. I do not know if
the EC-2
program is the same as the LS1 coils called out by Tracy. IMHO

But, still got a few things to do to the
aircraft, want to redo my motor mounts as I find I have no rubber insulation
between engine and mount (it just looks that way). Would like to
switch to LS1 coils, need to get the EC2 updates in any case, so that would
be the time to have it converted to LS1 coils.
Anyone know of a supplier with a good price on
the LS1 coils? The electrical connector as well, those things
cost almost as much as the coils. I think I can find some non-OME
connectors at a much more reasonable price.
I purchased on coil back a while ago just to
see what it weighed and to have for mounting measurements. The price
of the coil was reasonable, but the electric connector surprised
me.
