Default Wire Routing Question

Hello All,

I posted this over in Tech/Performance and got one very good reply, but looking for more. How have you folks routed your spark plug wires? I'm obviously looking to route them as cleanly as possible and looking for suggestions and maybe even some pictures if you've got any. Thanks in advance!

Take care,

Adam.

What, is there a difference.
Heres the factory wiring for an 86 and it does a very clean job.

Yeah, the hell hole is a reference to a very small passage on LT1's and LT4's up under the A/C compressor and alternator mount bracket where there's barely enough room to shove three wires through, much less four.
