Default new distributor

i have a 93 corvette base model


i bought an ac delco 10457702 part number



when I took it to the shop. they said the coil was messed up really bad. but i know the coil and the distributor are two different pieces?

since i bought the distributor complete. do i need to buy the coil also? or is it already part of the distributor?

and if someone knows where to buy it a link would be great thanks

Two seperate items
Just select a coil that has the same type connectors as yours

Here's a pic of your LT1 coil (and ignition control module (ICM) for visual reference. Location is the same, passenger side (left) of front engine cylinder head.

If they say the coil is bad perhaps itis not the opti. Try having just the coil replaced first if you havent done the opti yet
