  The solution to that is to direct wire all the coils to a single connector (of your choice) so that the coils may be removed as a unit.  That is what I plan to do on my 20B - RV-8 and the 13B - RV-4 when I update it for the LS-1 coils.  Yes, this may complicate the replacement of a coil if it should be necessary, but I know of ZERO actual coil failures.  [snip]

   I stumbled across an interesting execution of this principle at

http://www.mustangandfords.com/techarticles/127_0310_pain/index3.html

The copy at the relevant frame reads:

"The new Painless main wiring loom is fed into the dashboard as shown. The bulkhead connector is fitted through the firewall. Then, the underhood wiring loom is connected to the main wiring loom at the firewall. The main wiring loom's connector clicks into place at the firewall. This becomes a secure connection."

This is something I wanted very early in the building process (which I guess I'm still in, really).  I want, as much as possible to seal the firewall, and passing wires through it represented a serious problem.  Yes, I know, the control tubes and wires go through it too - I hope to work out relatively secure seals for those also.
