running plug wires under the manifolds.

What wires do you guys get when you run your wires under the exhaust manifolds? And how easy are they to route?

Re: running plug wires under the manifolds.

I ordered the Taylor wires from Summit. I'd have to look up the part number. Standby....

Taylor 51007 in black. Two straight boots for 2and 4, the rest 90*.

since I insisted on a set made for the large cap HEI (mines a 86,last year for the coil in cap HEI) I had to buy two sets from NAPA to get the wires I need. if your car still has the wire looms on the block its a cinch. as per the FSM the two straight wires go on cyls #6&8. all others are 90s

Mines not a factory motor son I don't have the wire loom holders in just wanting them under the manifolds for look. I ordered a set for a 75 vette for length so hope I can.
