I need pics of the plug wire routing for an LT1 with Corvette accessories. I want some idea how they are supposed to be so I can route mine similiar. Diagrams or actual pics would be great.

I would like to say I have pics but no.. however I can give a bit of input from my setup and experience gained.. The original routing actually went through the accessory drive with a plastic separator and then over to the drivers side plugs, very hard to get to.. the passenger side routed under the power steering and then under the manifold to the plugs..
My setup was originally a camaro routing so I used what was left of the camaro under header metal bracketry that was bolted onto the block and tucked it up and neatly as possible with the engine out of the car for the first time I put it together.. IMO if your engine is installed it will be very hard to route correctly and almost impossible to change after installation..
With that lesson learned my new setup (on the stand as I write this) uses a nice taylor wire and made-for-you over header setup from thunderracing.com you custom cut the wires and route them over header with very nice bracketry and your choice of color.
what is the reason? Do you want the factory look or access? Let me know I should be able to dig up my vette haynes manual and scan some pics for you.. but for our setups I would highly recommend a different routing..
On an aside, let me know what you need for A/C, I have had running a/c in my car with vette accessories with both modified factory and now custom lines.
