Default Hei coil

I need to replace my distributor coil. Is it worth the money to invest in a more expensive coil when my engine is stock. Same question about the module.

Oye mate, i think it mostly depend on the year but they all range in the same price, if you get the whole cap distributor asswmbly it play around 325$ , and a coil kit would be arpund 110$. Personally i would just put a coil kit.

The stock HEI coil puts out more than enough voltage to get the job done.
