Best COP ( coil over plug )

I have a 99 EB wth 157k and have had the normal problems with COP's. 8k miles ago I bought a new set of 8 COPs from Summit (their brand) for 260 thinking it was a good deal. So far two of them have died. I was wondering what kind of COPs people have been having the best luck with....
Thanks!

I bought a set of 8 off eBay for around $100, and 20K miles later they're still going strong.

I'll second the eBay deal. I'm going on 25k with mine and no issues at all.

I'll third that. Got them for my old 00 5.4L EB and put at least 20K before selling it and never had problems with them.

Try this search link:
http://motors.shop.ebay.com/i.html?_...G508&_osacat=0

If the link doesn't work for you then go to eBay and enter "set DG508" in the search box.

I doubt there is any brand name to them. They are generic replacements. If it's really that important to you, I suppose you could email him and ask if there is a brand name.

I have also purchased the generic replacements from ebay, they have been in for almost a year with no problems and have used Motorcraft & Wells brands which have failed in less than a year but cost is a big difference.

I've had good luck so far, with an Accel coil. I bought it for $36 from O'Rielly's.
