ls6 intake w ls2 coils and corvette regulator
I'm in the process of lt1-> lsx conversion. I have the engine in the car now and my #5 coil is directly hitting the ls6 fuel rail on the driver side. the valve covers are from a truck motor so I'm wondering if the mounts are different vs car valve covers. Don't have any around but can't tell. The coils do sit higher on the valve covers
I unbolted the #5 coil for now. I plan on bending the fuel rail up slightly as I plan on attaching my corvette regulator directly to the fuel rail, but still need a resolution on what do to with the coils. I'm thinking to build a 1" spacer and just drop the full coils down more on the valve cover so I get clearance.
Thoughts or other approaches?

Thats normal, the LS2 fuel rail has the inlet a different location than the LS1/6 fuel rail. You can carefully bend the inlet of the fuel rail to get some clearance if its close, I had to do this to use the truck coils with the LS16 fuel rail. All LSx valve covers have the same mounting locations.
