The chrome parts are chromed, the plastic parts are black, I like them, use them on my car for 2 years and they are still in good condition.
A small amount of modification should make them work just fine. I used them in my 1934 street rod with a flat head Ford engine. However, I did need to modify them a little, however, I was able to use them successfully. There is no doubt that they produce
It is adjustable. The brackets I received came with two. By bolting to the valve cover bolts, you can secure the valve cover. (I did drill and tap my covers however.

I found them to be mechanically solid, have a good look and perform better than any other product The cables are not difficult to install, but they do take a little time to install properly because each cable is clamped the right way with an allen screw. You should start at the front of the vehicle and move to the rear, securing the wires as you go, then connect the Divider to the.
The wire separators described here are similar to the ones I have used They were the first stampings made out of In my normal usage, I use the one that is billet aluminum and has a ball-bearing You can get a smooth top, milled or flamed. It is made by a couple of companies and can range in price depending on the manufacturer. Because of a tight budget, these are what I used on this build. Despite the tight budget, I wanted it to be high quality at the end of the build. There is no difference between the prices of the billet aluminum versions and these. These are two to three times the price of the aluminum versions, yet perform It is VERY IMPORTANT that you use plug wires that are "cut to length" and have their ends attached. The dividers are extremely adjustable, however the pre-assembled ones are much easier to use You cannot expect to get good performance from wires made at home and you will be very unhappy with where the plug wires come out. It is very likely that they will cease to work completely without burning up your wiring. These dividers will keep your plug wires away from the headers and keep it from burning up if you make them up properly and route them correctly. No matter what you do, the headers and plug boots get hot and melt regardless of how you protect them. So I highly recommend the Spark Plug Booties from DSI as an additional heat shield for the plug boots.
There is a return going on for this item. If you have anything other than stock plug wires in your small block chevy, this may not be relevant to.
Although the idea was good and the execution was flawed, this was a relatively inexpensive product. As the bolts screw into the black plastic blocks, the threads will tend to strip without too much struggle. As for the brackets, they are meant for an upper or lower mount (based on whether or not your valve covers are bolted at the top or bottom). It looks better with mine at the bottom, but I liked the way it looked with the top mounted position (the longest part is at the bottom when mounting at the bottom and at the top when mounting at the top). However, I cobbled together the two brackets, bending and securing them with a few screws to create a bottom mount that resembles In addition, make sure your ignition wires are in good shape. After experimenting with one that was 1, I got one that was A bracket that fits nicely in the bracket fits nicely only if it is 5 inches short. Though it looks much better than wires dangling everywhere, I had to figure it all out over the course of a couple days.
It seemed like the chrome plating was only done well on the top side. The bottom side looked rough and was poorly finished, and the edges of the metal didn't get any burrs removed when they were cut or stamped, or whatever the process was to do it. Due to the poor plating and finish, I am concerned that it will eventually rust. are a few stains on the plating as well that I have to remove with a polish. Despite the sealed package, I would have guessed it was used no matter what its state is. There are no marks on the mounting tabs to let me know where to place them so I had to eyeball it to get it the way I wanted it. Although I had to bend the mounting tabs a bit more to make them look right, they are easy to align now. My other concern is that some of the wires on some of the plugs are a little shorter than needed to make Most of the dividers could be passed through the whole thing. However, a few had to be taken out and didn't pass. The plug wires need to be custom-length for this to work properly. If you have the right equipment to crimp universal length wires, this is not a problem. However, without this equipment, this is not an option. This part looks fine on the motor presently installed, however I do not think I would purchase it for my next motor again.
A little elbow grease and a strong will to go through hell can get the job done. For a 92 LX Mustang, I did an upside down valve cover installation because the valve covers were angled that way. With a little bit of bending and persuading, we managed to make it appear It is important to keep in mind that if you don't have a magnetic allen key, some screws may end up falling to the ground, and you may spend hours trying to find one.
There is nothing I can say that would make me purchase it The complete list of the problems would take me a long time to describe, but as a classic car restoration professional, I would never allow my customers to see them on.
The parts are all there for installing them. It might take a little time to consider. I managed to get the passenger side in perfectly, but the driver's side was a bit trickier since the oil dipstick sits right where one of the valve cover screws is located. A set of looms consists of the following Unlike curtains, which are typically flat, the seats can be slid up and down and the hardware can be bent and manipulated in virtually any direction to achieve the look you desire. At the end of the day, it really did clean things In total, it took 2 hours for the wires to be installed with the new spark plugs. I received my order in just under one hour. The service was super fast and the price was great. I appreciate it.
