Great aesthetics on the LS swap! Love how the engine bay looks.

Where are the coil packs hiding? Are they under the "valve covers"?

Ya know, I'm a BB guy thru and thru. First car was a 440 GTX. Current cars are '67 Nova SS with BB 427, '69 Nova SS396 with period-correct ZL-1, and '66 Nova SS with 500" Ex Pro Stock motor getting swapped out for Ex Pro Mod 706.

Anyway, I really really like the looks of that LS done like that. I'm kicking around the idea of a '78 Z28 I know of. Price is OK and want stock-ish looks. THIS WOULD FIT THE BILL PERFECTLY. Maybe a Sniper EFI and not the direct port. Also like to do a '57 4door Chevy wagon as a daily driver. Again PERFECT.

Congrads to whoever did the under the hood work, remarkable.

Thank you, John

I could be wrong, and lord knows I have been before. BUT I think the coils are on the firewall behind the air cleaner?? Look at the iirc 6th picture (engine drivers side) plug wires run to back of engine, and between air cleaner and wiper motor, there looks like 2 plug wire caps on the firewall.
