Side mount wire looms for LTCC

Hey guys I run a LTCC setup with the MBA covers for the coils. I was looking for a set of side mount (Head)wire looms like the ones Thunder racing sells. But I only want the metal mounts not the whole kit. Does anyone know were I can find these? The link below is what I am looking for. Thanks..........John

The cheapest place I found there was there:

They had pretty quick shipping. I used these same brackets when I went with the Canton valve covers.

I'm actually kind've surprised that with the number of guys running OTVC wire setups that this hadn't caught on sooner, but here's another alternative to the "side mount" wire looms:




Same Made For You brackets, just with old skool Billet Specialties wire looms custom chromed. At first I thought I was going to have to drill holes in different locations in the billet looms to match up with the distance that the brackets were spaced but surprisingly the holes lined up perfectly out of the box. The only thing you may want to consider if you go this route is to get a tall set of valve covers to go with them: as you can see from the pics, the brackets make the looms sit about 1/2" higher than the stock valve covers.

Just out of curiosity, where do you have your coils mounted?

The side mount brackets can be purchased seperately. It's listed under spark plug wire accessories.

Are they polished like in your wire kit, and do they come with the seperators also. Thanks...........John

They are just a standard satin finish but could be polished. No seperators, just brackets only with the part number I listed. I understood you didn't need the holders, but if you do, they are in the same section listed as vertical holders.
