Show me your looms

I just got my new hedmans mounted and my old looms will not keep the wires out of the headers so i am looking for some new options. I currently just have the 1 piece set that mounts to the rear vc bolt. I am looking at a set of the billet ones that the wires run inside of or on top of. Anyone have any pics of what they are running?
Thanks

Re: Show me your looms

here are mine made by TAYLOR you can get them in tons of colours. I would have like to get them in black if I would have thought about it a little more.

Matt,
I have the ones above! I got mine from Johnsons Hot Rod Shop before last year's Power Tour. I love them! Remember to polish them when early in the morning, not after the engine has been running and the headers have heated them up!

Re: Show me your looms

I'm running the same as jsbgump. I had a set of the Billet Speciaties that I liked better. I swapped with my dad because the GM ones wouldn't clear the heater box on his Monte SS. The only thing I don't like about the GM looms not having a clamp on the end for the no.1 and no.2 wires.

Re: Show me your looms

Kelsfine69, I second the question on your headers. Are they full-length?

Re: Show me your looms

Yup Full length. They are Hooker Super Comps. They came black and I got tired of repainting them in high heat so i sent them out to get coated. It was worth every penny. Here's a pic of what they looked like before, No I'm serious this is them. It is amazing what they can do with a set of headers

Re: Show me your looms

raidermanny has that style in the above pics. i actually didn't know the spark plug wires were hidden inside those, but i found that out by looking at his pics. they look real good!
