Post subject:  Merlin Booster Coil Harness

We need help locating a harness that connects the booster coil to the A bank mag on the Merlin in out P51-H project. We either need a harness or a photo of one so that we can build one. This is a static display only so it dosen't need to work, but ours is missing and we don't know what it looks like.
Thanks,

D model has a small box on the L/H cowl former aft of the exhaust stacks. I believe the original had metal braid conduit with the wires inside.
I have seen various photos of H FWF without cowling. Look for wiring going to the magneto and follow it to a small metal box.
