Coil Relocation

It was around this point in the swap that I decided that I wanted the new engine to have an old look; Chevy orange and all. I was going to need coil relocation brackets. There are several choices out there for car coils. Truck coils, not so much. I decided that I wanted them behind the heads. So, the fabrication started.

The brackets started as simple angles to bolt to the back of the heads. I center drilled some spacers out of 3/4 rod on the lathe:



With coils attached:



Painted and fully assembled. Notice that they aren't exactly the same since there is just a little less room behind the driver's cylinder head:
