Coil is shown bolted to RH cylinder head in this image. LT1/4

It's assembled similarly to this. Don't forget heat sink paste if you disassemble completely:

Unless the engine is NOT an LT. The 84-91 engines have the coil in the distributer cap.

Would also be much easier for members to help you, if you would always post the year of the car your asking about.

The C4 ran from 1984 through 1996.

Quite a few changes over the years, with 5 different engines.
