Default Plug Wire Routing

Am looking for engine compartment pics and ideas on hardware to run spark plug wires. I used to run everything under the exhaust, but with headers the wires burned to easily. I am thinking that along the top of the exhaust is the way to go.Posts with pics or emails directly would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sorry No Pics But.

I bought some billet Wire looms from summit, that bolt directly to my center-bolt valve covers (think they make them for traditional style as well). I used these to run the wires over the top, and they keep the wires nice and organized and away from the headers. I also opted for a set of Accel Wires that had the silver wire mesh or braided look...similar to what they did with some of the old big blocks. Just what I did.
