plug wire help....what kind are they?

Folks, about the only thing not stock in my 83 is that it has headers. Although I ran some new wires, I'm worried about heat from the headers. I know I have seen plug wires that have a pretty big thermo wrapped end on them, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for doing a google search. What kind are they and where do I find them??


Oh, also, is there a kit out there that works with the stock valve covers that would lay these wires in real nice and neat?

Here are a couple of options to add to existing wires.

You may also be thinking of these, with ceramic ends.
