Your problem is the COPS take them off and send them to me along with $100 and put your car back to stock and to problem will go away!

If your tach is reading incorrectly, then I don't think the problem lies in the coils or plugs.

did you make absolutely sure they don't touch down at the base. You may have to bend the pins a little in opposing directions to ensure this before pouring in the silicone.

+1 on not being sure why your tach is off. Only *theory I can offer is that the connectors are touching their nieghbors, and you are getting "extra" tach signals through one of the leads.

Soo this is retarded FWIW My car runs again...... the problem was one of the wires (under gutted ignitor) fell off.. cylinders 1&4.... lol so rewired it and to my facination 2 and 3 stop working, lol soo rewired the whole thing plugged it in and success!!!

Also fabbed up the hold down bracket, my college has a workshop with tons of power tools

that I just found lol..... It was soo easy with al the right tools!! Tach makes sense now, right? half tach because half of the cylinder where working.
