    Center bolt to Perimeter bolt Heads, Coil Mounting help

    Ok what will I need since I know the coils are mounted differently to ensure this transition goes smoothly. I have a 99 so I have the center bolt heads but I am going with a set of perimeter bolt heads that I picked up fairly cheap last year. I just want to make sure I have everything that I need

    I made my own brakets for the coils out of a piece of 1/8" alumminum plate for the Goat cause the MSD coils were different mount syle than the originals.

    damn dude, I didn't know you were going to be doing this so soon. I just bought center bolt vavle covers, brackets, and gaskets last week. We could've swapped like you said but I didn't know you were doing this so soon. You'll have to mod your pcv hose to get it to work. I haven't actually swapped mine over yet but I'll let you know when I do exactly what the differences were.

    no problem. My stuff will get here Monday and I go on vacation the following week so I plan on doing everything towards the end of my vacation. So do you have the valve covers yet? If you have problems finding some let me know and I may cut you a great deal on mine. I'll have to decide if I want to keep them or not. I have boxes full of my original parts out in the shed. Can't ever tell when you may want to take it back to stock and sell the aftermarket stuff.

    yep I have valve covers already but thanks for the offer, i picked them up on ebay a while back. this is just going to be my first heads cam swap and I am worried something is going to go wrong and I wont have what I need to do the job, but thats just how I am I guess. lol good to know we are going through this together Orion, lemme know when yours gets done. Everyone will know when mine gets done, i have waited over a year so i will be shouting it from rooftops and there will be plenty of posts
