MSD's Pro Power ignition coil for GM LS1/LS6 engines is a direct fit for the OEM coil location but delivers higher spark energy to the plugs, with multiple sparks at idle. The added spark energy and voltage improve combustion efficiency for better throttle response, smoother idle, quicker starts, and stronger high-rpm performance. A 2-pin connector must be plugged into the coil for it to operate, and an additional connector is available for optional ignition/timing control.
