Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
I could use some advise and pictures please. I recently installed headers on my BB. What have you used for plug wires and routing to keep them from burning up with the heat the headers generate? Thanks

Re: Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
Really nice setup. Do you remember what wires and looms they were and where you got them?

Re: Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
I use ones like the attached web picture on my small block engines. Mine do not have the Chevrolet emblem, but they are sturdy and I am running MSD 8 MM wires on my plugs.

Re: Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
Thanks. I'm a little concerned about clearance with the A/C on the passenger side with that style loom. I appreciate the response.

Re: Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
Looks great! Are you happy with the 307? I've got a 71 with the original 307 thats getting pretty tired. I'm not sure if I want to build it or just drop in a crate 350.

Re: Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
I'm happy with it for now. I really don't know any better. I'm fine with it. It seem to spin the wheels pretty good. Plan on putting on a taller tire. Will have to see how it performs. I've read a few articles that get some decent power out of a 307 if you change the heads, intake, carb and some extra cam. With all that said, it might be cheaper to buy a crate 350.

Re: Spark Plug Wires and Looms with Headers
![]() I used these: ![]() Had to bend them up in order to work, I liked the look though. Wires are custom length setup I cut and crimped myself. |
