Blue85 Member Dec 25, 2020 80 11 18 Florida May 1, 2023 #1 May 1, 2023 #1 Do you think the coil would get too hot if mounted just above the intake? Never thought I would have a problem drilling holes in an engine bay. I really don’t want to. Attachments A6808F86-02C2-49B7-941A-279B0C024C15.jpeg 673.3 KB · Views: 49
Do you think the coil would get too hot if mounted just above the intake? Never thought I would have a problem drilling holes in an engine bay. I really don’t want to.
General karthief wonder how much it would cost to ship you a pair Mod Dude Aug 25, 2016 25,613 9,736 203 polk county florida May 1, 2023 #2 May 1, 2023 #2 The designers put the coil on the inner fender to remove heat and vibration issues that could (and did in some instances) occur. This is, of course, just a rumor and not based on any real evidence that I know of

Mustang5L5 That is…until I whipped out my Bissell Mod Dude Feb 18, 2001 41,836 17,444 224 Massachusetts May 2, 2023 #4 May 2, 2023 #4 Ford somewhat put the coil over the intake on the 94/95 Mustang and on the 91-93 Cougarchicken. These are the same coils as our fox cars 5.0 exploreres use a different wasted spark type coil, but they are where the dist used to be. 4.6L Mustangs also use engine mounted coils, and moderns cars all literally stick the coils in the spark plug holes.
