Default Question about the ignition coil pack

While I had my valve covers off inspecting the valvetrain I noticed that my coil packs are marked Denso. I never replaced mine and always assumed I had OEM coil packs. Could these be stock? My builder/tuner never told me they were swapped and never charged me for any aftermarket replacements.

Not certain, but DENSO could be the sub-contractor that GM uses to manufacture the coil packs...

Interesting...still I was expecting to see either GM or AC/Delco on it.

Why? Many C5's came with Denso spark plugs.

Well clearly if I was as smart or experienced as you are with Corvettes I wouldn't need to ask any C5 related question; since I'm not I have to ask questions here.


Thanks!
