What brand ignition coil to get?

Was looken on thunder racing and between MSD, Hypertech, and Crane Cams which would be good to get?

Just got headers, intake and a few other boltons. Heads/cam later is a maybe but for now it'll stay and it'll always be a street car.

Till you have a power adder spend your money on something else. Modern ignitions are pretty good, I remember reading that the stocK LT1 ignition was about as hot as an aftermarket HEI coil, if I find the article again I will post it.

I have the Hypertech. It's been on for over 4 years without an issue.

While you are still set up to use just a single coil, none of them will be optimum. That being said, a stock coil is cheaper and performs just as well as anything...
