Plug wire display ideas
Just finished putting in some Taylor 8mm's (red ones). I left lots of slack in order to do something nice with them. I've got some basic looms and stuff, but before I installed them I thought I would turn here and see what ideas you all had for dress-up.
Here's what I'm working around (Wires are the old ones. And, yes, I know the breather is missing  ):

Re: Plug wire display ideas
stock routing behind the heads and under the manifolds is neat and almost unseen

Re: Plug wire display ideas
couple years ago i bought a set of "Made For You" wire looms, and I have since put them on every vehicle i own.
they have kits to route your wires any way you like, and I have never seen anything else that has a cleaner look. http://www.made4uproducts.com/wire_looms.htm I vote vertically along the valve cover.

Re: Plug wire display ideas
That picture is a bad example, considering SBC heads only have two bolts , so the routing is different, and laying on the header would be no issue
When i get home I'll post a pic of mine. they clamp down nice and tight so routing away from the headers is no issue. the pic was purely to show one of the looms itself.

Re: Plug wire display ideas
I have a set of Billet Specialties looms ... pain in the ass to get the wires in them and the top on, but once done they make for a clean/hidden look.

Re: Plug wire display ideas
Those dang manifolds are some beasts. Even with slack I'm finding it tough to do anything other than tuck 'em away. Would still like to see more pics (just because I can't see enough pics of any truck) ...

Re: Plug wire display ideas
Thanks all. Went with down under. Would show a picture, but they are kinda hidden. Now, if only they were wrapped around some of the engines shown above ...
