Re: Wire looms

I used wires for a 75 vette with HEI, and ramshorn exhaust manifolds. Routed them as original with the original stands I got off of GMCPaul.(most any vender will have them) Here's some pics. Hope this helps?

Re: Wire looms

I did mine under the headers too.... A lot more cleaning has taken place since the pics. Just doing little by little. I got a couple looms at Autozone and made a bracket out of aluminum bar the bolted to the the block on the under side. bolted the loom to it and clipped all in.

Did your wires and looms come in a kit or did you buy the looms separately and if so where did you buy them from?

Re: Wire looms

looms are from Jeggs. I built the wires from bulk, that way you get just the bend/curve you want to curve around the Rams Horns. I used straight plug sockets. I also cut the risers for the looms from stainless tubing. The tubing and longer bolts bear down on the valve cover spreaders and makes a nice seal. BTW--none of this is my creation--all compiled from all the wizards on this site!
