Ignition Wire Mounting Brackets and Grommets

Post by montego69 »

Guys,

Anyone have pictures of how Ford routed and mounted their Y-block spark plug wires in the early 60's? My F100's Y is a 1962 292. I see Mac's has a kit with brackets and grommets but I haven't found a picture showing where all the stuff is mounted.
Any help is much appreciated.

These aren't the stock brackets but they are in the stock locations, and pretty much factory routing.

One is mounted at each rear corner of the block. One mounted to the block, left of the distributor (from the point of view of the picture). One mounted to the head on what is the rear portion of the intake flange, right of the distributor - the distributor has to be removed to get to this one.
