1994 Pontiac Trans Am - When LT1s Attack: Part II
At the time of the install it was believed there were no mounting kits on the market for this swap(later we found out otherwise), but we did come across the Thunder Racing LS1 Coil Relocation Kit made for LS1 cars looking to unburden the valve covers for easier valvetrain access. Knowing the different orientation of various hoses and wires, not to mention the dimensions of the intake manifolds, there was a good chance some modification would be required. At the very least, for $199 we would have a head start on fabricating the brackets, not to mention a set of Universal Cut-to-Fit Taylor wires included in the kit. Since Bailey Engineering recommended staying away from low resistance wires, as they tend to cause misfires with this kit, we substituted for Spiro-Pros (PN 73051) instead of the ThunderVolts that normally come with the kit. The Opti End Terminal kit (PN 04-46052), which Thunder told us is also used on the LS1s, was also needed for the straight plug into the coils. In the picture, you'll also notice a couple of packets of wire separators that Thunder was nice enough to provide.
