Hi,
If you can place the coil easily on the firewall or inner fender, it
would be a good thing. I recall reading at least one article in the past
that indicated that moving the coil on a TR6 is a good thing to do.
Excessive heat was referred to as a primary cause for coil failure.
The only drawback to having the coil on the inner fender is that the coil
wire might need to be a bit longer than it would in the stock location.
This shouldn't be a problem if you are into making your own ignition wires.
Ditto for the firewall.
Sorry to say, I have no idea what a Vitesse firewall looks like, but
assuming that it's close to a GT6, it might be a little "tight" in
there... wait - your car is RHD - nevermind. You probably have gobs of
free space to place the coil. Go for it - a coil on the firewall.
Better still, how about an Electromotive HPV-1 ignition system.... Hi John!
Later,
rml
