hi, wonting to change over a vs series 2 coil pack, just bought a coil pack may have been off engine such as a vn- vs and it seems to be slightly different, the one we bought has 3 bolts and just screw em down but the one on the car atm seems to be sitting on metal and just needs 2 bolts that go onto engine?? so does this mean there are more than one coil pack types??? :thumbsup:

you will need the dfi module (the flat thing the coils sit on) they are diffrent for each setup (from the solid block type to the 3 indivual types)

can still be purched new but are pricey

all three coil packs will come off of the DFI module, each coil pack is indeed a sealed unit, if more like when, they crack moisture gets in and theya re rooted, so opening them up is not an option, not to mention it'd be a messy operation.

Just go to a wreckers and seek out a coil pack that looks just like one of yours.

Then again ive always vowed that if one of my coil packs go i'll be buying a full set of L67 Super six coil packs direct from holden, just as good as MSD's and slightly cheaper.

A brand new coil pack can be bought for around $50 - $65 depending on brand and the shop, so if your paying any more then $20 for a second hand unit go and slap your wrecker.

the current Autobarn catalogue has the MSD coils you need for $85 each. Repco sells Champion brand for about $50.
