Yes, I notified them. FWIW, they have a diagram in the firing order section
that shows the coil pack upside down. Also, in the ignition cable section
they say "A grooved tray routes the cables from the coil to each cylinder.
The cables for the even number cylinders run along the bottom of the tray.
Cables for the odd number cylinders run along the top of the tray." Their
firing order diagram shows the even cylinders on the driver side of the
engine, and the odd cylinders on the passenger side. If that is the case
their statement about the grooved tray is backwards. The cables for the odd
cylinders run along the bottom of the tray, and the cables for the even
cylinders run along the top of the tray.

Honestly I can't remember, but I think I did e-mail them. I may have
asked for a refund. In any case, anyone who throws together a product
as crappy as that was already knows how crappy it is. Half the sections
weren't even there - i.e., IIRC, there was no cooling system section,
and several other major sections were devoid of any information - and it
was obvious it wasn't just an oversite - they just never pulled the
info. together. It wasn't like they would say to themselves "Oh look -
we totally forgot to include a section on the cooling system - how silly
of us - good thing this guy told us or we'd never have known". They knew.
