I have the same question --- the plug wires I got a while back, before the rebuild and adding headers are extra long for some reason, and I have wires hanging allover the place....I could put plug wire supports on the fenderwells and run them all the way over from there........who knows of a plug wire set that fits a sb chevy nicely without any extra wire laying around?? would a set with all 90 degree plug ends work better with headers ( my set has some straight and some 90 and I'm getting burned wires from the long straight ends)....and any suggestions on which plug wire supports to use with the tall Edelbrock v/covers ???? my engine bay needs to be cleaned up........

I would personally buy cut to fit wires, so you can make them the actual length you need.

This has to be one of the best ideas I have seen.
