Default MSD wires fitment 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 give me the proper slack in order to get these wires to work?

Truck coils sit higher on the engine than car coils. Truck wires are different in that they are a bit longer.

I ended up getting tgen to work just fine. I re-drilled holes in the bracket and offset them about by an inch. Fits perfect.

Having said all this, when I first installed the heat-sinked round truck coils on my T/A with the brackets in their proper holes, LS7 wires fit perfectly.
