It may be after you get done with this install. :jester Maybe you could post a pic or two after.
I'm planning on it. I'll do a report on the looms and take pics along the way. Now I have to wait until Tuesday til I get them. :cuss
While I got you here, plug wires, which plugs do the straight boots go on?

I've had to put mine on # 8 only due the JBA shortys. Had to route it to the plug placing the wire from underneath. Maybe someone will jump in here with a stock set up.

Thanks ittlfly. I guess that's where they belong. I'll put a little something on the wire so it doesn't wear through.

THANKS GUYS :cheers: :cheers:

I have a set of Taylors, but they rest right on the header (just on 6 & 8). I chose another route.

These are really a nice product, had some on my street/strip Nova. They really look good. I think others have mentioned it too, but I was runnin 8.8 wires, so I had to drill out 8mm looms. I thing I found out is that you do not want to drill the holes too big, they need to clamp down snuggly on the wires or the wires will slide around. This could allow them to hit your exhaust.

Regardless, I liked them and am considering them for my LT-4.

I have them on order for my LT1.

Will stock length wires work, or does a person have to get a "cut-your-own" set?

Boy, this is the question I have worked on for almost a week. Finally, I got an e-mail right from Made For You. Ross (the Made For You tech) told me the verticle looms with the head mounted brackets will work with stock length cut wires. I'll tell you Tue when they arrive.
