Thanks. I'll look at that the next time it's not raining. Since there was no HEI in 1969, the guy looked up wires for a 1976 Corvette w/ a 350 & HEI. I wouldn't call that an "early" Vette but maybe that's why they are so long.

My block is from 1958 so it may not have them. Am I supposed to look for holes big enough for a wire to pass through? Are you sure they are holes? Somehow I doubt that.


Quoting Devin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Generic cut wires are cut plenty long enough to fit early Corvettes, which run along a mount on the bellhousing then up underneath the manifolds. All the small blocks I've looked at have these holes in place, one on the bell flange and 2 on each side on the block near the head.

My new crate 350 w/HEI and GMPP wires has the same length problem and the ends appear to be molded on. I have been looking for the right guides to keep them in place and look sort of stock. No luck yet, does anyone have a good idea?
  Thanks,

What kind of wires are you guys using on SBCs w/ HEI? I just bought new KEM wires from a local auto parts store and the forward four are ridiculously long.
