CNP coils

	Great website.  Any idea why the subarban coils are referenced as a coil
kit?  I wonder why they would be more expensive than the camaro version?

	Also, I have quite a few GM part #'s for sensors and I am looking for the
harness side for hooking up.  Anyone have any ideas where I might find some
harness information?  The local auto stores don't have it or won't help me
out on this one.

Thanks,
James Ballenger
