Ok I need alittle help w/ an AMT 67 Z/28 Camaro kit. This is a first for me to detail out the engine on this kit. I'm doing the custom 302 engine. I have add an aftermarket wire kit. So my two question for you all are.

1. Where do I put the coil? On firewall or wheelwell? There is no room on block w/ the carbs and blower kit or not use it at all. 

2. Where is a good place to drill my holes for plug wires on the block ? Under the exhaust manifold or thru the valve covers.

Please help, cause I have not found any pics w/ a blower setup out  on the internet of a real thing like this. I am try to keep close to real as possible. Any comments would be very appreciated.

thanks

Bill

All the engine is is a small block Chevy. Any pictures of a small block Chevy will answer your plug wire questions. They go near the exhaust manifolds on the sides of the heads, never through the valve covers on a small block Chevy. The coil would be your choice since you aren't building a stock engine. In the real world I mount coils to the firewall near the distributor since excessive vibration and heat aren't good for them and a shorter wire is better for spark.

Her are a couple pics of the small block in my car,
