but still wondering..........

i have the team green coil setup from Tom (wrench monkey)

with the msd dis II box installed will the coils still be run off the icm and keep it plug and play?

if not i guess i will just sell my plug and play setup and just buy the parts again and just wire everything together again

thanks

^^Did you mean to post 3 of the same links?

Good question though, Id like to see how an MSD Dis2 is hooked up really

sure didnt lol

thanks jmarks, so that answers my ?, might as well just sell the plug and play and just get the parts *sigh lol

Well you have the msd coil adapters right? Then all you need is the msd box. The red boxes in the top picture represent the msd adapters. So you keep the stock icm and plug. Then just run the coil triggers to the right locations on the lsd box and wire in the adapters to the msd box. Run your power and grounds and you are all set...

its that easy...

I am always willing to help Plus i would be able to see that sexy car. We are getting ready to put ours in, after the engine goes back in. It is getting some goodies...

i wanna use mallory coils...



Needing 2.3 oil pump stuff? PM me...

yeah, i got the coils mounted to the adaptors and wired up to the stock icm plug so its just plug into icm, mount coils and route spark plug wires.

gues i can just undo the loom and rewire, oh wells

so i called around today and was looking for the msd coils and the interfaces and the part number 8824 wan not inface a coil but a wiring kit not trying to bash anybody just wanted to clear this up in case anybody else wanted to do this swap the part number is 8224 sorry if i am wrong about it but this is what the guys told me at the parts store if anybody else has had this happen.

oh yea and i got prices
coil=$46.69 each
interface=$35.75 each

just wondering if this sounds right this is aldo with my work discount.

Sorry about the part number. That is just a picture i got off here for the coil swap. Prices sounds right.

I wish someone would make an eoctec diagram that is that easy to follow...

Its basically the same. There is a write up on ecotec forum. I have an external coil set up on my eco. You can buy a plug that goes in to the icm for the eco. Once you do that it is basically the same, with different pin locations of coarse. I will see what i can come up with and i will make a diagram for the eco as well.

They make a plug for the ecotec ICM now? Before everyone used the cam sync generator. It basically was a wire wound around one of the plug wires.

Are the coil interface modules really necessary?? I had blaster coils in my 97 and it ran fine w/o the modules but now I am rewiring my car to a 00-01 and I can't find an answer regarding the necessity of them in later models. Anyone know?
