Fatty,
Check out http://www.sumax.com/8MMCustom.html
You can either get the rocker wores or the universal set and pick which ever boots you want for the coil ends.
I go universal so I could get the color and length I needed, but I had to reuse the stock boots and crimp ends. Don't remember the set I ordered though but prices were not to bad either from what I remember.

Seeking answers from those who had the ignition coil relocated: where did you purchase the plug wires from? And does it make a ton of difference if they were 8.5mm comparing to 8mm or whatever stock? I have already fabricated the mounting hardware and been in shock looking at the prices of some wires from the web. Any help from the Lo bros is greatly appreciated, always.

Fatty,
Try this place, Taylor wires http://www.sumax.com/8MMCustom.html
You can get the set for the rocker or universal set, more colors to choose from. I reused my stock boots and crimp ends as the newer style coil is different, and the boots were a little bigger and did not water seal very well much better with the stock bits though, but I had to use lube to slide the boots on the wires...

And I agree.. take the heatshields and have them ceramic coated, or powder coated (which supposedly will hold up under the heat, but i haven't tried it myself) black. It'll probably cost you about $100-120 or so. There's a forum sponsor that does powercoating, and their stuff is really good.[/QUOTE]
+1 on the regular powder coating on heat shields. Shields don't get hot enough to affect PCing. I've done it on 4 sets of shields with no problems. A lot more color choices
