Default Ignition coil question

I was hoisting my engine out of the truck into the garage and f-ed up one of the ignition coils. Can I pick up used ones? I am definitely lacking knowledge with this topic... I guess Im just wondering if probably high mileage coil packs will be good enough. I wont have any serious power... 250-300. Thanks.

Question you got the PI motor going in (like in your sig) with COPs???

if so just buy the factory replacement, or yeah you could get a used one as long as it was operational

25 dollar COP used, you may get what you pay for maybe not. I would probably get it if it is working.

How many miles on it?

Its on ebay... it doesnt have miles listed but that would definitely be smart to ask before I buy.

I could do new, theyre 72 each... but would one new and one old be alright?? Thanks for your help

i think we are talking coil packs, my fault for thinking they were COPs. On that revelation if you got the money buy both of them new and call it good for a long time.
