Dunno - will look on the phone as I'm 200 miles from the car at present.

I relocated mine due to my spare being completely different and not fitting on the original bracket.
*EDIT*
Sorry no pic on my phone so I'll take one on monday.

also a lot easier if leads need changing id imagine

Leads only need changing due to poor servicing, failed cam cover gaskets and oil in plugs will case HT leads to break down.

A well maintained car should go for 100k+ easily on a set of HT leads + DIS pack

I relocated mine to just below the airbox - there's even a cutout in the box that looks made to measure.
I made up a small loom to extend the wiring without damaging the original wiring and knocked up a bracket out of some 1mm steel.
I did need to borrow a no.6 lead from the Carlton though, and that one has to run over the top of the engine but after 3 months I have had no problems.

you got a pic of this murph? sounds great

+ 1 pic would be great

I'll get one on monday - somebody should remind me though, my head's like a sieve!

One removed, the options are re fit it, or relocate it. Easier to re fit it surely?

Often wondered about sliding a plastic guard of some sort down the back of the engine to keep and water off... But then it will rattle, be fiddly to fit, be in the way for other jobs, and sealing the scuttle is easier, ESP as it has to come off to get the dis out anyway.

As requested... difficult to see in a photo though...

[omega3000]

That is certainly easier to get to 

[tunnie]

Not sure I'd want my coil pack sitting under that amount of water

Would also imagine the leads are going to get pretty hot running past the exhaust manifold,although a noval design.

Each to their own I suppose

after looking at several options ive decided to leave it where it should be, having lpg on aswell just limits the space even more so it stays as.
