    i've never been much for how the engine bay of my 86 gt vert looked, but now that i've gone thru and repaired,replaced,modified or restored the whole car the engine bay looked crappy. could you all post some pics of your bay, mainly how you route the plug wires. i had it looking neat, but had #5 and #6 running side by side (pic below), and got crossfire....or whatever its called... and it ran bad. looking for a neat and clean way to do the wires.

    If you have two plug wires close to each other, they can jump to each other and cause the so called cross fire.

    Get a good set of separators and then just play around with the wires until you find a route that looks good.
