Ignition cable clips?
Anyone know where I can get those ignition cable clips which secure the ignition cables to the valve covers, via the existing nuts?
This is for a twin plug conversion on a '89 3.2 (well 3.3 turbo) motor.

Awesome! Thanks
 I take it these clips just slide into the top of the OEM leads?

To which valve-cover or other studs do you fasten those interesting-looking wire holders, or do you just sort of wing it?

I assume the rubber part of these lead holders actually slide into the top of the ignition lead. The metal side with the hole actually fastens onto the valve cover, via the existing valve cover nut ?!?
 Please correct me if I'm wrong

The wire holders can be used on the upper plugs and lower. On the uppers I use the lower studs and usually install a longer stud so you can put on the valve cover and washer and first nut..then the holder secured by a second nut.
On the lower valve cover, put the holder on the upper studs..whatever one fits best to the wire connector. Sometimes it helps to bend the holder to fit with the proper tension. |
