Gonna install these in a week or so, I was wondering if I needed an Over-The-Valve-Cover wire set??? Thanks.

You would be smart to buy one.It is the right way to route the wires.Probably could use the stockers,but better safe than sorry.They look really sharp as well.

they will save you from burning wires and posting on here how you have a mysterious low RPM stumble and high RPM miss and as said above... they look cool! ill just say either you buy them now or you buy them later... there might even be a group purchase still going on from thunder racing so check that out.

They aren't absolutely necessary, but I'd recommend replacing your wires and routing them over the valve covers. If you do choose to keep the stock wires, watch out for the #6 plug boot and wire, it will touch the header if your not careful. #6 is the wire I burned right after my headers were installed, I then went over the valve covers.

I don't have stock wires, I now have MSD 8.5mm wires. I'm guessing since they are thcker they would be harder to tuck away from the headers, but I have PLENTY of zip ties!
