may be a dumb question but, how do you work out the lead placment on the twin V8 coil packs? of course you take off one lead at a time, however if you were handed the coils and leads how would you work it out?

If they are original Motorcraft coils the lead placement is printed on them. Pots 1-4 are drivers side front to back and 5-8 passenger side front to back.
I'll try to chase up the correct coil placement for you. EDIT: Looks like 5L has sorted it, from memory that looks correct.
