I'd like to see some pics of engine compartments to get ideas on what I can do for plug wires on a 58 Chevy with a 283. It has the original exhaust manifolds.
The plug wires are now drooped from the dist. to the inner fender and then to the plugs and have right angle boots.We also have a 56 GMC with a 350 that has headers which allows the use of looms mounted on the valve covers.
I can replace the right angle boots but still need a way to secure the plug wires in a neat mannor.
E-mail me if you have any pics showing plug wire routing that produces a neat, functional look.
Thanks [email protected]

the factory way to route the wires is down behind the head and along the oil pan and up to each plug ... used/requires looms to hold them in place - this idea
