Default Im running into a snag. please help

Im just finished building my 5.3 and 2 days ago my store owner decided to buy me a gift for my birthday. He has a "premium" account from amazon.com and gets free shipping and crap but long story short, I had him order a set of MSD (red) plug wires for me. I got them last night and went out this morning to put them on and they are too short I order part # (32819) i have the square truck coils. Im sure of you may understand when i say this but I really dont want to bug the hell out of my store owner over a gift lol is there anyway i can redrill holes in the coil brackets to gjve me the proper slack in order to get these wires to work?

You may be able to fabricate extensions to your current brackets to move them closer. We do offer some remote coil brackets for LS engines to move the coil off the cover and onto the fender well. You may be able to make that work to use your current wires.

Thanks for the reply, I ended up remedying the problem earlier today. I re-drilled holes and offset the coil bracket by about an inch and everything fits great now. Decent slack in the wires, not tight.

Very nice looking engine and we are glad you were able to come up with a simple solution.
