I've done a bit of research but nothing confirmed; I,ve mounted my ford coilpack on the brace bar which replaced the inner wing. I'm trying to identify a set of plug leads that would suit this position but none of the manufacturers seem to issue lead lengths in there literature. My local factor has been next to useless as well and is only interested if I give him a reg number of the car they are for!.

We had them on the inner wing of the skip. We used fiesta leads. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

I used fiest leads too. I went to Halfords and opend all the Fiesta boxes until I found a set with the correct ends on, which by coincidence will be about the right lenghts. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Whoohaaa, they're masive. My coil pack is on the inner wing on one car and the brace bar on the other. the shortest of the set I have is around 30cm, which works well.

I got the vans stuff of a MK 5 escort. The coil pack was bolted to the back of the block. Leads on that looked a good length. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

I found a very short set I think they were escort. I have the box in the garage if your intrested I will get the part code I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Get the leads for a 'N reg Ford Fiesta 1.3' theese have the coil on the back of the block. So have the longer leads. |

or make your own, you can buy the lead stuff cheaply enough by the metre and reuse the coil ends of any ford lead set, and the right angle ends are available on the web,
