Primary wire off coil....

Does the primary ignition wire (from coil to center of cap) need to be short? I'm considering a Jacobs unit, which has the coil built into the computer box, and I'd want to mount the whole thing out of site, but that would mean a longer primary wire. Will that mess things up by slowing down of weakening the initial spark?
