We offer coil relocation kits and custom MSD 8.5mm Superconductor wires to go with them. I've seen them located down low on the frame rail maybe.

You can put the coils almost anywhere you want. You just gotta get creative with custom brackets. You can probably make a bracket that'll have the coils sitting above the valve covers giving you enough clearance.

Default brackets

Here are some of the brackets we offer.
They are $60 shipped or $155 for the kit with wires. the wires are guaranteed for life vs defects.
