Cutting and extending the harness is easy, but yes he's wanting to fab up some extensions. There has to be a standalone plug that is the same as the male connection on the coil packs but they are hard to find apparently.

it was worth a try.... its just my geek troubleshooting.. for when I do custom work. I fab and extend to test the process a lot that way. I don't mind doing electricals.... but I do like the idea of a custom plug and play kit to make extensions..... like either a certain length after his kit is complete. and or a extended open ended kit that the user can finish his extension to his own path and finish the cap .....see I cant help myself.

Just want to update this project. 1st batch of wiring harness will arrive next week. Got the pros do the harness to get solid contact on both ends. This is just an illustration of how it will be wired. I'll be testing by installing them upon its arrival next week, just to make sure its correctly wired.
I got special Order Codes from manufacturer for High Tension wires of different quality and price ranges of all their line of standard to competion wires. Will post upon final exact measurements are made. Gerry

Sorry for the delay. Its a bit time consuming completing all the
necessary components to get this project together. From mismatched
connectors from abroad (asia and europe) plus the long long time shipping
wait. Frustration of not having the correct connectors etc. But, as I mentioned
in the earlier post that it will be Plug and Play, and it happened. As I timed the
assembly, relocation will take only 15mins or much less.
Also, Magnecor assigned part numbers for this particular project with different
specialty wires to choose from.

The kit will consist of the following:

1 pc. -Main Coil Pack mounting bracket
1 pc. Z- bracket for additional support
2 sets of Complete extension harness
with factory matched connectors
and high heat rated wires (257 degrees)
2 sets of HT wire clips
2 HT wire post
1 - Relocation Bolt
1 set Grounding Wire Fastener
2- Coil mounting fasteners
2-Bolts w/ washer for HT spacer clips
1- Installation procedure via online.

I will be receiving the final harness near this weekend to
calculate the additional shipping and thats IT!

So far, I have seen some good results of the relocation IMHO
and one of them is "Damn, it just look different in there" LOL!

Thank you guys for hanging around during the entire process.
Gerry
