Rhino, The crank pulley was blasted and had not been painted and there was not a water pump pulley,I was tired of waiting for parts and decided to just put it in the car and change out parts later.One question I have is #5 plug wire is right on the power steering box,did I miss something?Everything is in line and appears to fit nicely except that spark is real close.Also could the Mods move this to Members as suggested eariler? I will post more pics later.
Thanks, Ray

I have found that the reproduction wire sets that are sold have the wrong length wires for the driver's side. The only one's I have found that are right are from these guys:

I had trouble with the #5 and #7 routing with the typical repro sets, this set has the correct length, especially for the #7 wire!


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

You need a set for a C Barge with a 383 HP engine . I used a repop set I think I got from Jacks for my Bee , the only one that was too short was #7 which makes sense , it needed to be about 5 inches longer than the non c body set , the other wires seemed to be fine .

Another note , not to be nit picky, but the OP has a 68 right side valvecover .
