Which HEI Wires?

I have a Delco HEI distributor in my 71 350 and the wires for the stock set up are WAY too long. So long, I have to tie some of them to the frame rails just to keep them from flopping around. Which application for a 350 should I get in order to have a neat, clean installation? Pictures would be great!

something isn't right. People always complain about the wires being too short and they get wires for a 76 vette, they are longer.
How do you have them routed?

Down the back and under the exhaust manifolds.

Somethings not right. I use 75 vette wires for mine routed the same way and they about right, 1 or 2 might even be a whisker short.
