You might want to try our host first, but you can get them from Andial by calling 714.957.3900.

Part number is 901 609 132 01 and they're about $8-$9 each.

Thank you Ralph

WOW At Andial they are $10.45 each. Anyone know of another place for less?
thanks
Christian

Pelican sells them for 1.74ea. All you have to do is pop the part# into the search.

"Pelican sells them for 1.74ea. All you have to do is pop the part# into the search."

When I do that I get a "retainer". Is that the spark plug hold downs?

Thanks,
Dean

Jerry Woods sells them for $9.50 ea. I made my own out of thin gauge steel then dipped them in liqud plastic.

Yeah, something is wrong. If Jerry W and Andial get near $10, Pelican isn't going to have the same thing for $1.74.

cvfncrew 10-15-2004 07:53 AM

I ordered some from Smart Racing and from Pelican. I know the ones from Smart Racing are what I am looking for. But I just had to see what Pelicn was offering at $1.74, I will let you know when thy get here.

Maybe people can post pics of what they use & where they got them?

I think the $10 units are the twin plug lower plug connector holders. I believe Christian is just looking for wire seperators. correct?

That's a good question. When I gave my answer, I assumed that Christian was looking for the lower spark plug hold-down clips for twin-plug motors. That is what the part number was for. I sincerely apologize if I misunderstood the post and made someone buy something they don't need.:(

I think Christian is asking about the extended-Z-shaped stainless steel tabs that affix to a valve-cover stud and reach out to keep a sparkplug boot from retracting under vibration, or whatever, on a twin-plug car.

Stephan is the winner:D
I was at Willow Springs the other day and my spark plug boot came off. So I changed the tips on the spark plugs and i will use Spark plug hold downs so it will not happen again.

I'm looking for the wire loom/hold-downs that were similiar to the ones uswed on the OEM wire set. Basically, I need separation and something to mount down to keep them from moving, etc. like the orange ones in the picture of bkrygiers.

Thanks,
Dean

Formerly Steve Wilkinson 10-16-2004 08:04 AM

Those things are plain, ordinary, plastic auto-parts-store parts unless you're a concours person and need originals. Moroso makes good ones, available through a variety of aftermarket/hot-rod catalogues.
