They are probably too small for those wires. I got 9mm red roush wires, had to really fight to get em in the factory wire seperators.

My 9mm Wire didnt fit in the stock plastic ones.

So i went to the dealer and ordered the FRPP Motorsport Separators. Looks clean.

can i ask whats wrong with your plastic ones?
yes, you may ask.(hehe) the live wires have some sort of sleeving on them that keeps them from fitting into the factory seperators.

the livewires are 8mm, but have that sleeving on them. think the frpp's you got would still work?

Chafe? How? On what? Its not like the wires are ever moving around....or at least they shouldnt be. hahha

nah, don't won't zip ties on them. want a clean look.

Zip ties are a clean look... when properly done of course.

I'd imagine the same could be done on a mod motor with a little wire trimming and detailing.

Engine vibrations or if hes gonna road race/drag race they will wiggle around alot. If it was best for them to be grouped together, dont you think ford would have done that?

I have the Livewires and the aluminum separators are a must as they are very thick with the covers on them. The aluminum looks good as an added bonus.
