Re: spark plug wires lets see some pics....

Mine are pretty messy, but i dont have them running over the valve covers.

The best way ive seen them run, is under the headers.

I couldn't figure it out either, but I was thinking maybe it's to try and figure out what wire loom he would like to purchase, or possibly figure out how we all keep the wires off our headers.

Mine are multi colored because I burned through the new MSD wires, yeah talk about aggravating. Not posting a pic, but I got a bunch of wire clips and clipped them so often, they cant touch anything.

Mine are routed from underneath the headers. Simple and clean.

Re: spark plug wires lets see some pics....

I'm planing on running mine differently as soon as I can get to the zone and pick up some plug wire holders.

Re: spark plug wires lets see some pics....

While we are on this topic does anyone have a suggestion what type or brand of wires to run under the headers? Mine where supposed to be high temp but two of them where brittle and cracked after a year.

Re: spark plug wires lets see some pics....

I also like running them under the headers, mw66nova turned me onto that method and it works very well.
