[QUOTE="Ironhand, post: 10630456, member: 32955"] Hopefully the Lethal Crew wont mind me touching on this alittle bit. [COLOR="Blue"]Can I run the stock GT500 coil on plugs (COP's) with my 96 computer and wiring (provided I get a custom tune) or do I need to stay with the 96 coil pack setup for my computer and harness?[/COLOR] No. The wiring for the 96 goes from the coils to the plug via a more traditional spark plug type wire. Your best best will be to use a GT-500 harness and computer. There are alot of differences between the two motors, deck height, plug location, different style of connectors, and sensors that arent even on the 96. The only real way to make a GT-500 engine from oil pan to blower work, is with a GT-500 computer, coil(injector harness), and power harness(alt location has been moved). [COLOR="blue"]Also, can anyone tell me if there is a performance difference between coil packs and COP's? I see y'all carry Weapon X and other brand performance coil packs and COP'S.[/COLOR] Coil packs are just that. On the B headed(96-98) cars, there are 2 coil packs, one on each side that has connectors for 4 cylinders each. From there there will be a wire that runs to a boot and connects to the spark plugs. COPS(Coil on Plug). Each spark plug is fired from its own coil that sits directly on top of the plug and sits under the coil covers. The differences are that the Coil packs are two different coils that fire 4 cylinders each. While the COP system uses a coil on each individual plug. [COLOR="blue"]I haven't seen any articles anywhere about performance differences between aftermarket coil packs vs COP's.[/COLOR] Thats because not alot of people use them. Some see power gains while others dont. You can use the money spent on COPs to pick up power elsewhere. Also, the facotry Ford COPs have more then proven themselves to be more then reliable, durable, and capable to provide enough spark energy for high horsepower cars. [/QUOTE]
