plugwire solutions

highlighting some plugwire solutions for people, as some engine bays are tight, and you cant get the manifold down and forward for good plug wire clearance, mostly on things like Gbody or Nova, camaro front ends with the double wishbone front end taking up the space next to the block, people running a log or forward facing header having trouble with plugwires fitting and or burning plug wires ends, etc.

you can flip manifolds up and forward, and buy a simple plug wire relocation kit and mount the coils and whatnot underneath if you have the room and then attach the stock wires.

people use something like this

LSx-LS1-LS6-Ignition-Coil-Relocation-Brackets-and-Harness-Extension-24-14019K-/221976337316

below is similar installed on a Nova for clearance

other things we have done, include buying LT1 plugwire set's from Autozone wich are some long and short's, this is great in a pinch but you have tons of extra wire in some cases and you route it all over the place, other times i have seen people mount the coil packs to the firewall and run the lt1 wires up under the headers for good clearance

below is a photo of us having plugwire issues with up and overs on the dyno, running to AZ and just installing the LT1 wires all over where we could to get the dyno tuning done

the other option is up and over or around the side

recently we found NASCAR take off plug wires on ebay for sale from 9-90 dollars seems like there is a long and a shorter set for sale, they both work but the up and over shorter work great, similar to the longer g6 or 3.5 v6 malibu plugwires we were getting out of the junkyard that go up and over the manifold nice and support themselves on a short hoop

in the photo below you can see how the plugwires are on a 90deg boot and then go up and over the manifold nicely and plug right into the spark plug, these are only certain length ones off the g6/3.5l set, so its not like you can buy a set and create the same effect.

the two photos below are the longer "nascar" take off ebay wires routed the long way around the turbo header and block giving you more ideas.
