From where can I purchase a set of long HT coil leads for my Fierblade locost?
Still wiating for my firts drive
Regards
Make them !
Buy some 8mm copper cored HT wire from a motor factors, sold by the metre then recover the ends from you existing short leads and reuse.
The coil packs simple unscrew and pull out, retained by a rubber 'O' ring, the plug ends unscrew.

just buy the individual leads (carbon) from halfords or other parts store cut the ends of and just screw them on
this will give you better plug kv and much more reliability and supresion

Andy: You got enough clearance under your airfilter before the ram pipes?
Do you mean that I can use a normal car HT leads and replace the spark plug ends with the ones I have?
Regards
exactly,they are far supirior than copper and easier to get
ps yes enough clearence

Thanks that sounds simple enough. Any particular car/make/model that I should look out for?
they sell them single so i just meassured the distance of my longest reach and bought 4 of them
Don't buy 8mm lead whatever you do, you won't be able to get the ends on. At least we couldn't when we bought 8mm. Make sure you get
some the same diameter as the ones you're replacing. 7mm IIRC.

That type you can carve a taper with a stanley knife and fit thru...
The point I'm trying to make is that if you buy the correct diameter leads in the first place, you don't have to bodge them to make them
fit.
