I just had the same problem with my 350 mag. I had 2 plug wires reversed. I was positive I had it right, untill I spent a couple hundred on parts I didn't need and did some checking.

Usually when someone tells me they fixed their problem by changing a coil, it's because they most likely fixed the bad connection to the coil. There's not a whole lot that can go wrong inside a coil. It's just a big winding of wire. Anything bad on a coil you most likely will be able to see from the outside, like a crack.
