There are many spark plug wire looms. I think the best looking are by "Made for You". Summit and Jegs both sell them. They come in vertical or horizontal and attach to your valve cover hold-down bolts (actually they replace the bolts). They make them for perimeter and center bolt valve covers.

I used the verticle style for the big block in my Caprice. Here is a pic:

EDIT: The pic came out too small to see the wire looms. Here is a link to my Car Domain page for the Caprice. You can go there & click on the pic and make it bigger.

I am more interested in the shock tower / STB than the wire looms.

Who makes it? Is it hand made?

I second that. I'd like to get one that would work with my SS hood... That one looks like it might fit.

There is a company called made for you products, they make some really nice wire looms for center bolt valve covers. Heres a pic of the ones i picked up. This isn't my engine, but you can get the idea.


They also make this set.
