Spark Plug Shields 67 SB

[SIXt7]

Any suggestions or photos from those of you who are not using spark plug shields? What kind of separators or looms will keep wires and plug boots away from the exhaust manifold? Will stock length wires work with looms?
Will heat sleeves be necessary?

I don't know if you're talking about the RF shields or the spark plug heat shields. In any case, if you use stock wires, routing, clips and grommets you shouldn't have a problem. The RF shields that are held on by wing bolts are standard on radio equipped cars but not present on non-radio units.

I'd like to eliminate the RF shields (wing nut shields) and boomerangs and re-route the wires "on top",...hence the concern about heat problems. Thanks.

Don't think there's any way to do that without burning/melting wires with the ram's horn manifolds; spend a few bucks for the routing clips to hold the wires where they belong and worry about the expensive shielding pieces later.
