Routing stock spark plug wires
I'm getting my 75 ready for Hot August nights in Reno.
I have all the stock wire looms and crome pieces that came stock with the car.
I want to put back stock, but have some questions on exactly how the looms bolt onto the engine.
I've seen pictures on this forum of how it looks but I'll be darned if I can find it now.
Can someone please give me a hand in finding the right thread please.

Thanks that helped a lot.
This will be the first time I have ever put the plug wires back in the stock location on a Small Block Chevy.
They are definitly out of the way of the headers now.

One thing I found out about precut spark plug wire sets is that a set of wires for a small block Chevy will not have the right lengths for a Corvette.
I made sure I got an MSD SBC Corvette set from Summit.
You can get the wires behind the motor mounts by applying some dielectric grease to the wire near the boot and sliding the boot off. After fishing behind the motor mounts slide the boot back on. Sliding the boot off the MSD 8.5mm wire set worked easily.
