I'm going to install my 95 style mac headers pretty soon and figured I would do my wires at the same time.

Should I route them like the stockers or over the valve cover?

I do not care about looks just keeping my wires safe. Thanks.

 

You can really do it either way as long as you route them away from the headers. I'd go over the top though, I think it's easier than trying to get the wires back in the stock locations, plus you can easily see none of the wires are touching the headers.

 

It is very easy to route through there stock location. You should have no problems burning wires.

 

stock location here as well (with macs), a few tie wraps here and there to keep everything "safe", no probs. when its time to change them again, i might go the otvc route, mainly cause i HATE routing them around the ps pulley and all that crap have a good day man

 

Thanks guys. I'm gonna route them like the stockers and be done with it.

 

When ever wires are routed OVC, do you need a custom size? Cus the stock sizes would seem to short.

I noticed there was one company tha had te kit to mak ethem yourself, but do any companies aleady have wires for LT1 OVC-routing?

 

Yes they are made from the "Universal" type wires. To do this you need to get a set of wires (I have Taylors and so far am very pleased), and a set of Opti ends (again I have the Taylor set) and measure and build the wire for your application.

I personally have seen a few people run their wires back in the stock location after headers and I just can't see why. I would have to see a set of Macs, to see the clearance, but I would assume that the OTVC is gotta be safer than routing them in the stock location. Plus it looks neat IMHO

If you need pictures of a set-up I will mail you some of mine.
