Default Engine code help...

Ok i broke my 99coupe last weekend at the track on the first pass and had to trailer it home cause it would not run. I was thinking that i blew the motor,bent a vavle or push rod. I just got off the phone with my buddy that fixes my cars and he just ran the tech2 on it and the codes were all 8 of the ignitoin coil packs. Does anyone know what might have happened? Any input would be great though. Thanks a bunch guys adam

Turn the key to start hold down option and press Fuel 4 times. This will put you in diagnostic mode and will tell you the codes. There are some more threads on the subjuect if you do a search for DIC codes. I just learned last weekend.(Thanks Cobra4B)
