Thanks for that Paul... I just got all the supplies and did the wires on the Cobra last weekend.
They didn't come out quite perfect like yours and a couple of them I plan to trim again, but it looks better than it did before and definetly isn't bad for a first timer.
When I get ready to put the stroker motor back in the Oinker I'll be doing it again and expecting better results.

Glad you tried it out man. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries to get stuff perfect - I've done about a zillion sets of wires so I'm pretty good at it now. After you've cut all your wires and loosely installed them, you can zip-tie them starting at the distributor and moving your way back to the headers. That way, all the slack from cutting a bit too long or short will get soaked up by the bend in the plug wire just before the spark plug. :grin:

Paul.
