Default Any issue with relocating coils off valve cover?

I am looking at using the CBM Motorsports coil relocation kit. Is there any issue with extending the wires or spark plug wires. I am interested in hearing if anyone has experienced any problems doing this.

You won't have any issues running longer plug wires. Most quality wires have such low resistance now that even a run from the fenders wouldn't make a difference.

I think that I am just going to relocate the coils using the Proform bracket. It seems that the plug wires that everyone is using are the MSD 39829. I don't really want red wires so does that mean that I will have to cut custom wires. It appears that most of the wires are 11" in length except for the MSD 39829, which are 13".

Any other options?

The stock application for the long wires is big block 3/4 & 1 ton trucks. Example: '01 Silverado/Sierra 2500 w/ 8.1l motor.

You can source the wires from several vendors. Here's some part no.s

MSD 39849
Chevrolet 8898-4269
AC Delco 748KK and 748FF
Delco Pro 9748KK and 9748FF
