?passenger plug wires?

I didn't have to completely remove the power steering pump, I just loosen it enough to where I could route the wires behind it. The only thing I removed was the alternator.

If you havent allready bought your plug wires and have headers spend the extra money and go to Thunder racing and get the over the valve cover setup. it saves on burning plug wires, easier routing, and looks trick.

if you cant and must go with stock routing remove the Y-pipe, take the altenator out, and just take the bolts out of the PS pump so you can shimmy the wires through.

for a few bucks buy some convoluted (SP) tubing and put it over the wires that run behind the altenator and PS pump. helps keep from fraying them.

Good luck.

well i am in the process of doing headers, thats when i got the wild hair up my azz and decided ta do wires, but would the wire package that costs 100 bucks have everything i need? it askes what color i want the wire separtors to be, but not the actual wires. so would i need to order the black wires too or what?

nope wires are included Thats why its SUCH A GOOD DEAL!! i would do the over the valve kit if i were you, I did and i was very pleased.

From Thunder racing

The top-mount looms (shown in yellow above) will mount the plug wires to the tops of the valve covers. The side-mount looms (shown in blue & silver above) will run the wires along side of the valve covers. Thunder Racing only offers our complete kit with the wires and looms in matching colors. (If you order red wires, you will receive red looms, etc.) The brackets on the side mount kit are polished aluminum and the separators will be the same color as the plug wires
They also give you the optispark ends and a crimping tool. great deal for 100 bones.
