I am looking to replace my distarbutor to coils on plug,
i am using now aem ecu v1 and found that it is enough to use the aem smart coils and aem epm for my goal 1000hp h22.

does the k series coil pack are the same as the aem smart coils?

as i understand they are the same as the aem smart coils but from pictures i dont find them the same.

at aem the coil connected to the plug with plug wire

at k series coil pack as seen on network ,the coil is on the plug.

any help to understand would be apriciated!

thanks!

the v1 only has one coil output... to run the coil in a distributor or an external coil for a distributor setup

you need an external cdi box to run coil on plug with the v1 box (i think the v2 as well)

you would need a cam trigger setup like the t1 unit for b series motors, you can't use the stock crank trigger and since you'd be removing the distributor, you'd lose those triggers as well

the only 2 ems units I know of that can run coils directly from the unit itself are the AEM Infinity and the Megasquirt 3 Pro but even then they cannot run smart coils off the box only "dumb" 3 wire coils like the ls1 coils.

you would still need an external cdi box to run smart coils

read user Calidads thread, he is using the aem smart coils. either post in his thread or pm him asking for details on his ignition setup

as i understand for cam trigger i need to use the aem epm or t1 trigger, the v1 box will run coil on plug just need to do some modding on it.

does the k series coil pack fit on h22 ,no need to modify valve cover or add any plate?

98vtec

they are a perfect fit, however, you will need to make a plate to secure them

DTAfast has built in coil control. just fyi.

I figured that unit would, modifying a v1 board for direct coil on plug/coil control isn't worth it... plus you end up stressing other components on the board that weren't designed to handle that kind of electrical load
