Relocated Coil packs
I know a few of you have removed the coil packs from the valve covers, where did you put them exactly? Inside the cab or on the firewall somewhere?

Re: Relocated Coil packs
There is one fellow on here that put them inside the frame rails, I think it is Matthew:

Re: Relocated Coil packs

Re: Relocated Coil packs
I'm still up in the air on it. I love the look of them removed, but not sure if it's worth it on my Blazer. It isn't going to be a one-off custom show truck or anything. I'm kinda going for the "Blazer that Chevy SHOULD have built" look and I guess keeping that in mind a stock looking engine isn't the end of the world. When I started this thread I had visions of hiding them in the cab/under the dash.

Re: Relocated Coil packs
My old man relocated them to the back of the motor on his 66 vette, he made some brackets that used the bellhousing bolts. You can't see them in the pic but this is what his motor looked like.

Re: Relocated Coil packs
Do you have any more pictures of the coil packs? Or for that matter, the car and engine bay? I love it when people work to make things look so simple and smooth.
