LS Coil Relocation

Those of you guys that relocated your LS coil packs into the frame......can you take a few pictures for me? Just trying to decide on placement. I'm probably going to build something similar to this and just looking for ideas. Thanks

Re: LS Coil Relocation

This is on my 60 wagon but similar idea. I had room on the frame next to the trans to mount my coils. Used brackets just like in the link above. I then bought a roll of msd wire and all the ends and made my own wires, installed heat shelding where needed and have had no problems. I love how it cleans up the engine.

Re: LS Coil Relocation

same but different, cheaper too!

Coil Relocate brackets - ebay

I buy a lot of LS parts from these guys, nothing but great parts, prices and service.

sorry, not to hijack, just thinking budget conscious.

Re: LS Coil Relocation

I will be honest. I have bought a bunch of their aluminum parts, alt relocation bracket, PS pump relocation bracket, fuel rail parts, idler pulley parts, water pump spacers, steam tube thing, motor mount plates, yada yada yada. so far i have not ran the engines these parts are going on but dang the products are nice... and CHEAP. (as in price, not quality).

Re: LS Coil Relocation

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'm going to pull the trigger on a set and go from there. I just can't stand to put those coils on top and cover everything up.

Re: LS Coil Relocation

Yes that's mine. The entire front accessory setup is from a 2011 Camara (LS3 stuff).

I will take a few more pics tonight.
