so I am working on my fabbed up 6l lq4 with upside down corvette manifold twin setup
it comes to mind that there is no way the spark plug wires will fit between the head and manifolds even with heat sleeves
so what are you manifold guys doing with your coils - where are you locating the coils if you are moving them, and are you making up plug wires and coil harness extensions etc etc
picture if you have them please
thanks

yikes, so the manifolds are ultimately too tight for the wires to fit through to sit in their stock locations on top of the valve covers. I believe their is a kit that seats them alongside the engine block. I will look for the kit, but I do not remember the name of that particular kit. If anyone else can help with the name, that would be greatly appreciated
What if you mounted the coils low on the block then ran all the wires back towards the firewall then up and along the top of the manifolds? They would "approach" the plugs like a gen 1 sbc. The wires would be different lengths, but I don't think it'd matter.

The LT1 z28 wires are super long have the correct ends for the LS coils. You can heat tape a metal hangar to the wire and position the wire any way you need and it will stay in that position. I've actually just made a big circle around upside down forward facing manifolds using this method with the coils mounted to the VC's.

Do you know if they offered custom where you can cut to length? Last thing i wanna do is uncrimp and recrimp. PITA....
