I'll survive with the non-sexy, yet functional, for the time being.

If you're thinking about doing it, do it now while its out and dry... no sense pulling the whole front end off again, draining the coolant, going through all that shit and welding up modifying the AST to fit, spending moneys on fittings twice etc etc etc etc.... j0o do it ONCE

The QuickSilver coils... I would get them from Chris Ludwig of LMS-EFI dot cum or something similar is his website... stout fucking coil for sure...
Other option is the Bosch Motorsports coils from FFE... they are not as powerful, but the packaging is MUCH nicer....

The more I look at it.... that fucking AST horseshit needs to fucking go......
Also adding the AST/T-stat combo will eliminate the hooky ass 5/8" barb to 3/8"NPT to 3/8 NPT tee to 5/8 barb to 3/8"NPT to 5/16"barb to 3/8" NPT fitting that needs to be constructed in the heater core return line near the turbo..... just saying... one more benefit
