67 small block secondary coil wire

[Steven B.]

Did the coil wire have a low profile on the coil end to fit under the ignition shielding or was the wire like any other GM wire on the ends? The wires that were on my car when I got it, have no identification and the coil wire was bent over at a fairly sharp angle on the coil end. There is not much room to lower the coil because the bracket bends under the bottom of the coil. A set of dated wires that I recently purchased, based on the picture of the parts, led me to believe that the coil wire was somewhat flattened and had a 90 degree molded bend on the coil end to fit under the shield. The coil wire that came with the set is like any other coil wire. The AIM also illustrates a common wire. What was correct? I am stumped!

Steve,
If you are asking if the wire out of the coil is a 90 degree or straight, the answer is straight. Similar to all the ones on the distributor cap except the coil one is a bit bigger around to fit the coil.
