Years ago I said bunk on the starter motor noise relationship relative to HEI and still do. You have high voltage sparking right near a module inside the cap and i am to believe a starter motor located away from the HEI is going to bother the module? Whatever caused GM to state that probably was debunked later but no one wanted to change the status quo. Never seen that before in the corporate world right?
I suspect the system voltage drop caused by loading on the starter and cable length, etc. caused the module to misfire.. the whole thing was probably started (no pun) by a fresh engineering grad getting his feet wet in the biz.
I don't believe it and I've purposely swapped ignition coils in my HEI (they DO have different magnetic polarity BTW) and there has been no change.
I stand by what I said.
