Got the plug wire heat shields and rail clips from LMC.

The rail clips are just hanging there by some longer bolts in this pic. I found I had to cut some pieces of thick wall tubing and space them down a little to get them to sit properly. They didn't fit into the turned down edge of the pan rail quite right. I think I ended up cutting the bushings about a half-inch long, spacing them down by that amount, and then they worked fine.
