Will they fit on the back of the heads on an F-body? Also where can you buy these?

It's a cool idea, but I'd hate to have a coil go bad and have to try to change one on an F-body with that setup.

I didn't figure there was. My car is a DD and I've only had it for a few months. I haven't had to really get into it too far to know for sure. By the way LPE 403, I love your car and the build thread. Makes me want to buy a new DD so I can start the "build" process.

There is a point where if they run hot too long, you'll start losing them. Behind the heads might be too hot for them.
