Will this coil work?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW I need to know if this coil will work on anything other then the car it says which is 1994 LT1. So will it work any thing newer like 96-97? Or just 93-95 Also is this a stock coil or a high performance coil like MSD? Is MSD better or they about the same?

Re: Will this coil work?
ive talked to many people about coils, i HIGHLY recommend you dont buy a performance coil because an msd and accel sent out a higher electro output, which helps a little but it kills your opti's lifespan quite alot. it burns up the electronics inside of it, and everyone i know even alot of drags lt1's with opti setup just recommend stock coil, its what id recommend bro

But I'm in need of a bigger spark, I got a good opti, 8.5mm wires, and some good plugs. Gonna get TR6's but don't know where to gap them at and if it will help and what the hell is indexing the plugs? I just need more fire power lol but not from a hot plug. Someone told me a coil is the best way.

Indexing is when you point the "open side" of the plug a certain direction(i think towards the exhaust valve, but i'm not sure it may depend on the situation).

That's what I thought indexing the plugs was. But what does this accomplish? Better combustion? I agree that aftermarket coils are a well spent dollar. So if I don't spray can I still run TR6's w/ .50 gap and be as good as TR55 @ .50. I seen something saying for every 50HP over stock decrease it by .004. Is that true? So I should gap at about .42 or sumtin? But with NOS around .35.

That pretty much falls into the "urban legend" category. Lots of people (including myself) have been running aftermarket coils and even aftermarket ignition boxes for years without any problems.
