Got my ebay prism tank today. Its well made of heavy steel. Its going to take some serious mods to mount it and make it look right but in the end it fits the look I'm going for. I may end up cutting the back bone out of the frame and welding in a new one. Obviously the coils will have to be moved but that's no big deal as long as I can put new longer plug wires on them. Never done that before, and the wires almost look like they are molded into the coils?? Anybody done this before and want to chime in???

You can unscrew spark plug cap from plug wire, then use this coupler, add on this wire, and then the proper shape / size / resistance plug cap. Don't use car spark plug wire. I wouldn't re-use caps if they're old, resistor inside may be ready to crap out.

...or, if you replace coil(s), go with one of these 3 models - top of coil allows you to unscrew and replace plug wire. Go with wire and caps above.
