Default 98-99 ls1 coil packs

can i get an up close pic of the way the coil packs are on 98-99 perm valve cover?

i did a plug/wires this weekend and i think i might have placed them wrong...

cus some of the harness are really tight, i might have flipped them? instead of facing left, i put them facing right?

any pics will help.....PLEASE

driver side/pass side please

I don't know what you mean by facing left. The point where the coil connects to the spark plug through the plug wire should be closest to the plug. The coil pack connection can only face the intake or the header. It should face the header. This points the coil toward the plug. I don't think you'd have a problem even if you put the driver's side coil pack on the passenger side & vice versa. Maybe you are using stock plug wires & have an aftermarket header?

well.

when i say sideways/backwards.

you will notice on the coils, they have a half a circle that surrounds them and at the ends they have the holes for the bolts.

i need to know which direction those face



see on the left hand side? thats what im talking about...

How they are mounted shouldn't affect the performance.

On the driver side, the half circle on the number one coil faces the firewall. While on the other three coils, the half circles face the radiator.





On the passenger side, all of the half circles face the firewall.
