Default Plug wire looms for top bolt billet valve covers

What are you guys running for spark plug wire separators, brackets ect.
I have some nine ones for my bottom bolt Moroso valve covers but the new ones are billet aluminum with the long Allen bolts from the top.
Old ones will not work and scratching my head as to what would work.
Thanks for any help.

I just run them where I want, use small wire ties to make my own separators, doing so keeps them in a specific route.

Dad used the stock GTO wire separators on his high mount billet covers and just simply modified them, I cut and welded them back together so it still has that factory plug wire routing look to it.

Just a little time spent to dress welds and detail them and they look like they are made for it.

I use the Moroso BBC separators, but you have to buy extra straight legs to get it to work. I use bolt holes in the heads.

I bend the one type of loom for the passenger side, but they do make righthand and lefthand brackets.

I also drill a hole and put a screw in to keep the end on better. As they age from heat cycles, the ends have a habit of not staying on.

Zip-ties for me. Cheap, effective, and looks good, IMO.
