Exclamation Taylor wires

I just got my Taylor 8mm spark wires in today with the clamp style seperators and I'm a little unclear as to how to mount them to the valve covers. Also, the Taylor wires came with the boots seperate and I haven't aprk wires before. Is there an online direction guide? Thanks in advance

I used this when installing my taylor wires and OVC looms.

If you still can't figure out how to make the wires i suggest taking apart one of your old wires as a guide. PM me if you have any more questions.

97CamaroZ28R, awesome HOW-TO on the Taylor wires. I got a set from Thunder Racing, which included the 90deg plug ends and the opti ends and a ghetto crimping tool. http://thunderracing.com/index.cfm?f...ategoryid=1087

I got the topmout kit. decent price.
Whenever it comes to self-crimping spark plug wires, the most important thing is to use silicone lubricant spray. otherwise it will be impossible to get the boots on.

Here's a pic of my topmount kit on my `95 camaro LT1: http://numb.voxel.net/pics/new-jag3/IMG_1367.JPG

I did not se any increase in MPG. I don't think my wires were bad before I replaced them, I replaced them during Hooker LT install.
I have Flowmaster AT, it pops during deacceleration. Did not notice a change in popping after wire install, I think I would have to change my muffler to get rid it.
