Plug wire set and looms for Dyno Don headers, perimeter bolt

I'll be installing headers here soon. Dyno Don without air tubes. All the emissions reactor garbage is deleted already.

I have a stock 86 LB9 with perimeter bolt valve covers and a large cap disty.

What (cut to fit?) plug wire set and wire looms will best suit me? I want the wires run down from the top not the stock routing.

Just about any major brand plug wire set would work.
There are various kinds of looms avail. that fasten to the
valve cover bolts that would hold the plug wires in place so
they won't contact the headers.

Done right, looms bolted to the side of the block routing the wires completely underneath is a better look.

A roll of wire and boots and terms from MSD are how I usually go.

Preference I suppose. I like to see them, and be able to swap them from above. I went with a set from GM Performance parts. I don't think they will 100% work with the LB9 heads but once I swap those out (along with the engine) they should fit.
