Does the mounting position interfere with a wrap over intake system?
What are you selling these for Al?


Chris;

Mounting on the the rotor housings as I have done would interfere with a
wrap-over intake.  The coil mount is drilled to match the existing bolt
holes in the housings; but could be mounted where ever you like.  I am not
using the wrap-over configuration.

I have one left - $75.  Probably could get more made if there is demand; but
less than 3 the price may be a bit higher.
