Looks like he got his wire length established, fed it through 5/16" tubing, established one profile and then duplicated the bends with the other 5 wires so they maintained the same spacing at the center.

The neat thing I discovered with the enlarged picture, is that he has taken a 261 (check the block numbers) and made it look like a 216. Now that's going to some length to remain period correct.

I've never seen a coil cover, upper plug side cover, regulator cover or breather cap in those configurations. Not familiar with the "Sharp" brand but bet he did some digging to locate those pieces. However, I wonder about the beehive cannister....engine numbers correspond with a 55-57 261 and I thought they used the full flow can with 1/2" lines. Maybe they are 1/2"...a little hard to tell.

Just goes to show you, that the sky is the limit if you're willing to put in the time and effort.
A few pictures can sure get the wheels turning!!!!
