Ideas

I'm looking for Ideas for a spark plug wire look kit. Anybody got any pics of theirs? I swapped out my valve covers last night with some old finned aluminum ones i had laying around and really need to pay some attention to my wires and stuff now. Maybe get a new distributor when i get a new set of wires. I like the kind you make yourself so all the lengths are correct. Ill post a pic of my valve covers later.

Re: Ideas

Put some new (well new to this truck) valve covers on this last week so now you can see the need for some new spark plug wires and some wire looms. I cant stand everything just running everywhere. I like everything to look like it belongs there or look like it came that way from the factory. Or at least close to it.
