Which coil delco or aftermarket

Wondering what others recommend for coils for the 96 lt1. Mine is starting to fade, should I replace with a delco? or aftermarket? Any opinions would be appreciated.

The stock 96 coils are pretty good. What evidence do you have yours is "fading"?

Hi thanks, At low rpm's, say goin from 35 mph in 5 th gear accelerating staying in 5th to freeway speed it has some hesitation till the rpm's build a little higher. I've changed the plugs optispark dist and rotor, replaced with new delco plat wires. So I pretty much narrowed it down to the coil. Am I right??

Possibly. It is not easy to judge the output of the coil, unless it is suitably weak. The upside is that it is not expensive to replace.
