Default Plug wire routing

Would some of you with LT1s please post some pics of your plug wires? Specifically the routing on the driver side, where they "disappear" and go to the optispark. I'm buttoning up the head gasket job on my daughter's car, and I can't reference my car on this one, cause I have the Delteq system. Thanks!

Polovette 94,
I found these images on the internet a while back. It's a display LT4, but it should be the same routing. Hope this helps!








Regards,
John

So on the driver side, they do go above/behind the idler pulley? I was afraid of that...

Just imagine the most difficult route possible, and you have it.

It’s kind of hard to get my phone down in there for useful pics, but here’s what I was able to get. It pretty much looks like the above pics from the display engine except with a lot more crap in the way.

Thanks. Could you take a pic a little to the right of that second one? Trying to see the orientation at those brackets and the air pipe on the manifold. Thanks again.

It is more than ridiculous. I took off the tensioner and still had to have my wife's tiny hands finish the install. I simply could not get to it.
