Default LS Engine Coil Relocation Idea, Will it work?

I am really wanting to hide the coil packs on my build, and thought about relocating them to the inner firewall, but I would like to find a closer place to do it.. I have this little pocket in my crossmember kit, along with a unibody frame rail relief for the oem upper a-frame, so it makes a nice little pocket.. I understand that there would be potential water during rains and ect, but these coils are pretty well water proof from what I understand, with the exception of the actual power/signal plug and plug wire, which I am sure can be dealt with..

There should be enough fresh air, along with actual header air gap clearance to run fairly cool, so I am not sure if that would be a major factor at all. I am thinking they would actually run cooler than being trapped in the engine bay air space, while mounted to the valve covers.. Just wondering what some of your thoughts might be, and if anyone has mounted the coils more in the open elements?








Here are some earlier Header Clearance pics of the same area.. I was thinking just a basic rubber style dust flap might do the trick?
