wanted to mount my bosch coil on the other side of metal bulhead in the rear trunk.

is it a problem running the coil lead thru a metal bulkhead with regard to arcing etc?

the other location I had in mind is about 12" away from the CD box. Is that a bad choice as well.

My intention is to mount as many components out of the engine bay for easy access and motor removal.

thanks,

run a nice grommet and you'll be fine; i've seen this on many race cars.
check with your safety/tech guys regarding holes in the firewall tho...

For a real Whoop-de-doo, MSD makes this, and other ignition system manufacturers probably make something similar

I have one of those MSD thru-wall things on my car.
Works well.

Also be sure to mount the coil very secure. I have mine come loose once and it srcews everything up real quick.
