Original spark plug wire looms
Hi all,
You guys are great and it's helping me out tremendously. Got the missing right cyl. head hardware coming in today for the 87'. Now I need to now how many wire looms I'll need to do the job right (it was mostly zip-tied before...). I know there was a 5 wire loom behind the distributor that doesn't attach to anything, but I'd like to know how many 2 and 4 wire looms I'll need on the left and right sides of the engine.
These plastic looms are the original factory plug-in to the sheet metal tabs on the side of the cylinder heads. Any help or what GM PN's these are, would be greatly appreciated. The local dealer isn't worth beans and even gave me the wrong part (a handful of three wire holders). Larry at Gilbert Chevrolet in Walla Walla Washington has been super helpful. He just needs to know how many 2 and 4 wire looms the 87 L-98 required. Thanks so much!

Mines an 87 and I got them at a local dealer.

That's it! Oddly enough, I have both catalogs and didn't see it in there, but found it on-line instantly. Thanks a bunch all, I'm ordering it today and will order 2 of the 2's and 4's and one of the 5's. Great place for newb's to get answers to some tough and sometimes dumb questions (I used the search before I asked).
Sincerely,
Regis aka F22

[QUOTE=Ray Quayle]Thought this might help. It's from the FSM:

Thanks Ray! The FSM is not here yet, but that sure helps us out (especially those whose cars have been touched by mechanics who don't care how the wires are routed).
