This isn't really a Cruiser questions except that the SBC is in the Cruiser.
With a small block chevy and early points GM distributor and Ram Horn exhaust manifolds, I'm pretty sure GM routed the plug wires around the back sides of the heads and to the sides and then up to the plugs with 90 degree boots. The 2 front cylinder wires on each bank were even clipped to a holder on one of the oil pan bolts to keep them away from the exhaust pipe. These 2 wires on each bank were very long.
So, is anyone using a shorter wire and running them OVER the Ram Horn manifolds? If so what wire set are you using and what kinds of clips, or holders are you using to keep them from burning up on the manifolds? And are you using 90, 120, or 180 boots?
