So I recently swapped cam and heads on my 1998 LS1 which came with perimeter bolt valve covers and thus I updated my valve covers to match the heads. This was fine until I tried to fit the coil packs under my early fuel rail with two hoses (factory return) and found that none of the various brackets I had access to would fit.
Is anyone aware of a center bolt coil pack bracket that fits? I ended up using a set of valve covers and coils/bracket off of a 4.8 truck motor that was in the same shop and available to be stolen from so that I could get the car running ASAP but right now the driver side coil pack bracket is zip tied onto the valve cover and I obviously don't want to leave it that way. I am sure I can make something that fits once I get the car back from the body shop but I was hoping there was already a known and reasonable solution for this.
I took a lot more pictures at the beginning of the project as opposed to the "end" as I was rushing to get the car driving again but if you look closely at the beginning of this video you can see the dual fuel lines and the coil pack there hanging low is held on by some doubled-up zip ties
Coil Pack Bracket for Early Fuel Rail?
