Wire looms - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The other day I bought a new chrome engine dress-up kit and included were two four-hole spark plug wire separators. No instructions were included, so where exactly do these go? I have the stock manifolds. I am going to get new wires too, so I could get actual wire looms if I need those at the same time. Pics would be appreciated.
Thanks, John

Usually those are designed for the valve cover bolts and the log style manifolds that run UNDER the plugs. I like the Made for You (that'st he company name) vertical looms and I bolted them to the oil pan in an arrangement that worked for me. I have two of these setups, one on my Camaro and one on the Jimmy. I buy Taylor pre-made plug wires for a 67-72 V8 truck.

Thanks. Is that called the Made for You vertical wire loom? I was researching them at Summit.

Yup. They aren't cheap, but I like having the wires out of the way. Work great with rams horns or headers, but won't work with log style manifolds.
