Default Relocated Coil Wires????

I have been seeing and following the discussion of relocating the coil packs and that I understand to the "T".
The question is: What is the verdict on what someone did (complete) on setting up the wires?
Like P/N#s for wire set and ends and were any of the ends reused with the new set?
We should get together on this and make it complete so we can all do this mod over the winter. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Thanks, Dave

I make my own relocation setups.

You are right it helps getting to the plugs in quick
time, but it makes opening up the valve covers
Ultra-fast.

Nothing like checking pushrods or lash in under
5 minutes and you don't have to pull any plug wires <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I've been wanting to do this for a while but I'm not sure what kind of plug wires to get. They have to be longer than the OEM ones right?

Yes they are longer than the stock ones to relocate the coils.
I have been getting help form Jay on his kits but everytime I try to use his site I cannot find the coil relocation kits and or wires. Must be my computer skills going bad LOL!
They seem to be very expensive also! What I was looking for was someone that made the wire sets and how they did it and what part numbers they got!

Once I figure this out (and I will) I will be more than happy to share this info with you guys!!

Until then, Lets start doing our home work to put this mod to use for everyone. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
