Interesting, I wish that I had heard that previously. I have had no issues to date, but I have carefully isolated the ignition circuit (both hot and signal ground go all the way back to the battery, while the coil secondary ground connection is made on the rotor housing). I wonder if the individual setting it up installed sufficient bypass capacitance...
It requires less than 1 mA to the igniter to fire the coil, so a little noise could definitely cause that.
How do you pop an engine by auto-igniting while cranking?

I wish I had talked to you before I made my decision (although I still would probably have chosen the inexpensive route). It appears that those I spoke to about LS2 coils had a much higher opinion of them than you do.
Out of curiosity, why do you think that they will make less power? The LS2 coils spec out well (not that specs mean much, but you have to go by something).
Anyway, If you want a set to test, I may be able to get you one, but I will have to talk to my buddy (who bought the other 4) as to when he will need his.
