Internal or External.........

hi, i was just wondering which HEI is better, i have both but im thinking that the External would be better for a performance application like mine because of the ability to run a better coil than the limited variety for internal, cause Crane, MSD, Accel all have high performance coils for internal, but theres more veriety and by the looks of it in Summit/Jegs/ that the external coil would give more performance because of coil options, let me know what you think, i already have both distributors and currently have the internal installed with a Accel module....

In my opinion, it's all in what you like. Most people I know prefer the external coil, as do I. I think it's easier to play with.

thats what i think too, but i also think the external would be better for performance applications cause there are "hotter" coils for the external
