Ignition Coil

Hey guys, quick question, does it have to be Bosch (944-602-115-00-M14) ignition coil ($117 from Pelican). Or can it be other aftermarket ignition coil (hopefully cheaper kind).

Thanks
Dan

I have an MSD blaster 2 with ballast resistor and I'm very happy with it...
They're approx 50 bucks.

Did it require custom plug wires or will stock plug in and work?

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?

And you found values out side of these?

Term 1 to 15 = 0.4 - 0.6 ohms
Term 1 to 4 = 5 - 7.2 k-ohms
