Yes it does have coil packs. I have been contemplating if there is any way at all to convert coil packs for use in our cars but since these are of a distributorless design I haven't been able to figure this one out yet.

Hmm. I seem to remember that Shad Laws has a distributorless (or semi- distributorless) ignition system on the 2615 T4 engine in his T3 Fastback. I don't remember the details, but I think he embedded the magnets in the fan and used a pair of Compufire modules for triggering things -- one module for the actual triggering, the other to reference the position of #1 cylinder.

I'm gonna have to dig and find out what/how he did it.  I did a quick search
and found is that he's selling his car (minus engine and trans) for $4k ..
