IMO that's one of those deals that's great for a show stopper but not a car that's driven.

I like the Shipka's coil packs mounted under the radiator support.. That is what drove me to make my own but ended up mounting them in different location.. The Katech valve covers with coil brackets look damm good to.. Can't go wrong with either choice :D

My valve covers will have fins & cross flags :unibrow:

Hmmm, very interesting. Relocating my coils is one of the things I want to do this summer. I don't have room behind my heads to mount them there, so I've been thinking about following Shipka's lead and mounting them under the radiator on the core support.

The other option I'm kicking around is just selling the carbon fiber valve covers and going with a set of Katech valve covers with coil brackets.

I have the pic saved from last year when I was shopping for valve covers, but can't remember who makes them. I know I saw pictures of them on a green 67/68 protouring Camaro though.

I've got a set of 96z28ss' relocation mounts and I'm happy with the way they cleaned up the look under hood.

I believe Tyler made these--if I remember correctly----these are on EVADE--Bill's car--I know he is running a Speedtech frame on his---it looked really nice--

Scott, not sure if your's could be packaged same way since I believe you have the Wayne Due sub----but I always thought this was a really clean way to run them--wire length isn't bad and routing should be pretty clean.

I like all the designs presented here thus far--it sure is nice to have options.

I just wish gm didn't have so many coils all different shapes.

I make some also. I sell them on e-bay. I had some request from guys to make one that fits the truck coils with the heatsink. They give out a ton more spark that the standard LS2 LS7 coils. I just made one that mounts the truck coils should have them soon. You should look at making some of those also.

Hey Bob, I know it's an older thread but I'm interested in a set of these. What else is required to complete the install?

Let me know,
Ryan
