I took the boots off the 90 deg spark plug wires so they would fit the headers. the metal fitting is tight and no contact is made, but can it arc out to the header at high RPM's ? Seems to work so.

What epic fails await...?

360, sml bk summit headers, B body

You will not fail to scream @#%$#@!$%%# when you forget there is no boot installed.

Use Rajah terminals to solve your problem.

I hear it'll arc to the header tube at higher rpms. I would just the header until there's enough clearance. I had to do this in-car on mine, it was no fun, but I came up with a redneck way of doing it that worked for me.

Accel makes shorty spark plugs for headers.
