Coil Pack relocation

Wall96 and 96GTS, can you guys give me an idea of what all needs to be done to relocate the coil packs to the firewall?

Exactly. You will need to undo part of your harness and re-route it to the back of the engine bay. From what I can remember the harness starts from the corner of the battery tray and runs across the front of the engine.

Re: Coil Pack relocation

Well I think the plug wires themselves can be re-routed to work fine since they are like 4ft long and my MSD's are slightly longer than I need them to be. Its the wires that hook up to the front of the coil pack that I dont want to have to splice at the moment.
