Splitfires are nice as direct drop in, but they are pricey and dont offer a performance upgrade, they just replace, the best bet is to stay with the stock coil packs and just look after them, keep them clean and moisture free. They will hold LOADS of power.

changing to external distributer will require changing to a stand alone, and if you going to go threw that much hassle you mind as well go stand alone and use 2 MSD GM dual poll coils, works mint!
Good Info! One thing I have been wondering about, what is Dwell?
