Default Lq4 with Ls1 intake

I know this has been beat to death but i cant find all my answers. Im swapping to a Ls1 intake on my Lq4. Already know about water pump and idler pulley issue. I ran into a problem with my fuel rail hitting number 5 coil pack. I know i could go aftermarket rails but don't really want to. I saw i could switch out the coil packs for car ones. Now can i just switch that one pack or do i have to do the whole side? If have to do the whole side will the car bracket bolt to the truck valve cover? Thanks for the help.

Most people just bend the line enough to clear if they don't want to swap both coil packs.

Second that. We did the same thing when we converted to DBC LS6 intake on a TBSS LS2.

Can i just change #5 pack to a car one as it plugs on the side instead of the top where i need the clearance?
