Many said it couldn’t be done, but MSD has done it! At last, a high-performance, multi-spark replacement coil for the remarkable GM Gen-III small block!The advanced electronic controls of the Gen-III engine presented MSD engineers with a formidable challenge, as the control drivers are built into the OE coils. MSD was able to design an advanced circuit that operates with the factory electronics of the Gen-III engine while producing a higher output spark. Not only do you get a higher voltage spark, but the coil will deliver multiple sparks! Yes, that’s right: multiple spark discharge coils!

This version of MSD’s multi-spark coil was designed for GM’s LS2 variant and will provide more spark than the stock components. MSD coils produce up to three times the spark energy of the factory coils, and multiple sparks help keep the engine clean at an idle. MSD’s new kit (MSD 82478) provides everything you need to install the coils on your car, including eight coils and mounting hardware.
