Thanks Bob, I needed that information.
I would prefer the coil D581 truck type, could you advise if you can source
the connectors please.

here in Australia but the cost is about $150 from GMH ( your GMC)

version) coils.  I ordered what looked to be the correct connectors, only to
find out that they had an indexing lug that prevented them from mating with
the coils.  I trimmed the indexing lug off and used them anyway as there is
a lock that prevents them from being inserted 180* out.  Just be sure you
check it very carefully.  Connectors cost as much as the coils.  Go figure!
You can always do what Tracy did and solder wires to the pins on the coils,
then pot the plug hole.  Then use one large connector on the whole bundle.
