Bob Bailey is a mad scientist..







Katech coil re-location brackets, although it seems I ended up with
LS1/LS6 brackets, but we will see what Katech will do to help out.

Yeah, I held off until I could find the appropriate brackets for the coils, it seems that Katech just started making this style.

Also this is about to be a sprayed and boosted setup.

KAT-A4666 is for LS1/LS6 coils
KAT-A4667 is for LS2/LS3/LS7/"LS2 truck" coils
KAT-A4669 is for round truck coils

The type of coil is laser etched into the bracket. Verify that you have the correct bracket.

What parts are you using for pickup, etc? I'd like to price out the entire project. Those brackets look great!

Passenger side has a hose from the throttle body for emissions, pop it out and use a tranny funnel. Better pictures are coming.

Those valve covers are not buy and bolt on, I have a lot of work in them, but little money.

Dynaspark for the optical eye.

I would be embarrassed if it was all priced out, I have been piecing this together for a year and a half.

And there is a lot of wrench time and fab time in it.

There are going to be a lot more pictures, it is just slow going, remove items and ship, wait for them to return.

It was worth every dime.
Runs twice as good as it did before the tear down.
Now to hunt down a dyno tuner in GA.
