I am having a hard time keeping my plug wires & boots off the headers.

i already burnt up one set of ~$75 MSD wires

who makes 135 degee boots that you can buy at a local parts store?

got a 454 in old Nova, but the wife wants to pilot it down the strip some more./

I use clamps from made4uproducts. They have a website and I think summit had them.

you can find them at Gotellis Speed Shop (http://shop.gotellispeedshop.com/plugs-wires-hold-downs_c42.htm) they have been around since 1962 and if you call them the service is great

Zip ties is about the only thing that advance is going to have worth buying. They probably have some chrome wire seperators but the zip ties will be cheaper and probably work better.

135 degree boots in stock? Nope. You need Taylor 409 race wire with heat sleeves...I can get them for ya or order from Jegs. I use Taylor exclusively. They have them in any angle you need.

Depending on what valve covers you have, I have a set of Bowtie wire seperators for a big block. Chrome. I'll donate them for a beer or some garage art, or something. I don't do chrome.
