Just about everything you need:

For coil packs:

Metal to make bracket, 30ft of 8mm wires and heat wrap:


I still have to extend the power wires to the coil packs but, but you get the idea. Im also planning to get a heat shield to cover the coild packs and the ABS. I'll post those pics when Im done.

looks good, lenny, but i am a little concerned with the possibility of arc or 'cross-talk' or interference with the wires being bound and wrapped like that. are they somewhat separated inside? not trying to be a dick, just asking.

Default Re: Input

that would be a smaller setup, with less of a chance of crossover.

howevever, it has a different driver setup.

the one shown above is pretty decent, although it looks to be a pain in the ass if you gotta change a coil out sometime.

I can actually pull the entire bracket off if I need to change a coil. I know, I had to take them off today. It was pretty simple.......oh, and a good ground is REALLY important Found that out the hard way too

Cool setup, points for originality.
I would recommend that you ditch the 3 hundred nuts and washers idea and get some non-threaded aluminum standoffs instead, except for one nut at each end. Keep the threaded rod obviously Then everything is still spaced apart, and the whole stack slides out without 6 hours of spinning nuts off. You'd keep your perfect spacing every time you diss/assembled it also.

I may be ignorant, but who makes that coil setup??
