Edelbrock Header question
Ok, I just got a set of TES Edelbrock headers with air tubes. I need to know if i should be using 90degree boots on my wires now. If so, which ones really need the 90 degree boots? I thought a few on the passenger side might. Please let me know something. Thanks.

Re: Edelbrock Header question
Yes, you definitely need 90* boots. I went with all 8 at 90*, it seems like straight boots would burn no matter which plug they went to.

I used 90 degree boots and Taylor boot protectors. Cost about $50 a set. Great insurance, and you can get them in colors to match your engine paint scheme. They don't look too bad either. Randy
