Default Update...relocation of coil packs...

I just started this project yesterday, and am taking my time with it. First of all, just like to say, it's not too tough to do this. I talked to Barry at ARE and got some info about the plug wires, which was my first problem. Barry helped out a ton, I figured out what I needed and I ordered MSD wires( P/N 32129) It is an LT1 cut to fit application, and I also ordered MSD plug boots(P/N 8854) to really ease installation. Second, I had to fabricate some brackets for the coils. Well I took a trip to Home Depot and got some steel ( 1 3' length of 1/8"x1.25, and 1 3' length of 1/8"x 2") I got more than I needed, but for a few bucks I figured better to have some left over. I followed this How-to as a basis for the measurement(http://www.geocities.com/mulot30th/C...Relocation.htm), but did mine a little different. I welded the cross bars, and some other little stuff. All in all a pretty easy mod, and really cleans up the engine compartment. More arm room too, now I just gotta get some fancy valve covers...wait I should get some TEA heads too...sorry thinking out loud <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Hope this post helps someone. A week or two ago, I needed this info, and it all came together... <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />
