Big time props to Joshua..!!!..

It sure cleans up the engine bay..thanks for your effort Joshua.. I know it was hard for you to work on something as non-shinny as my engine is..but it was clean and not greasey ..

Thanks for trusting me with your car Steve!

Also thanks for letting me drink about 10 beers during the install.

Folks, we fabricated each part 2 or 3 times before we got it right. The kit will be pretty much everything the customer would need (supplies, specific tools) but you must be comfortable working under the hood if you're going to relocate the coils.

I'm going to be buying the supplies today & tommorow and I'll post pics of the completed kits when I can later this week. ~Joshua

10...!!!.. .. .. ..you must have flunked math... ...you might just want to list the tools and supplies needed instead of supplying them in the kit..the price would be lower and be more attractive that way..just a thought.. you know how a lot peoples perception is ..

My computer is too old to load photos from the memory stick. (There's no access slot.)

My fiance' does the pictures for me at her parent's house, but that computer just died (terminal) this weekend.

I'd love to post some pics, but I have no way to load them from my camera.


* Pricing? Put it this way, it's going to be sizably cheaper than the Thunder Racing kit if you compare apples to apples.

Thunder's kit has a couple brakets and spacers, and some wires... that's it. No instructions, no listing of tools you will need. Nothing.

Mine will have all of that (a better bracket system, plus polished faces on parts that are visible) detailed instructions, and some supplies that will be needed *** for less money.

In addition, you can buy the tools that will be needed from me. Example: a 90 degree attachment for the drill so you can drill the 4 holes under the cowl, and a puller to remove the windshield wiper arms (so you can remove the plastic cowl) and so on.

These kits are fabricated to mount the coils under the cowl of a Camaro or Trans Am.

The bracket and the locations aren't compatible with any Corvette. A Corvette kit is possible if it's a desire for the product. I may add it in the near future. ~Joshua
