C20Xe With Coilpack

[Denis K]

When the c20xe is fitted to the manta with a coilpack I see that people usually mount them on the side of the engine as there does not seem to be enough of room at the back of the engine with the heater setup.

What I would like to know is what people do for plug leads as the stock ones do not look to be long enough for this setup or are they??

Are there any other cars with longer plug leads that fit the xe?

omega v6 is what i used on mine they are really long

other alternative is mount coil pack on a bracket in front of heater fan cover.

a

contact magnecore and have some made to length.

b

buy a three metre length of spark plug lead cable with fittings and make your own.

Magnecore custom made ones. You can use a standards set and shift em about. That means the longest one will make it to number three and you'll only are to have one made up for number 4

I raped an ecoshite vectra in a scrap yard for mine. My coil pack is bolted to the bulk head in front of the fan blower... Its a bit pikey but does the job.

if you go to the trouble of fitting a c20xe you may as well go the hole way and fit denso iridium plugs with magnecore leads get the best spark to the engine.

then modify a turbo throttle body to suit, chip ecu, power cap (real one) and a k+n in standard air box with extra holes drilled in the base.

skrimp and suffer c20xe is tempremental if not looked after. I know been there and done it.
