    Mine just sort of hang down and drag against the ground. Are they supposed to be connected to something? :yikes:

    Thanks guys (especially you, TL :D )

    That going around the front of the valve covers looks much better than mine. Mine kinda just drape over the top of the covers and around the carb, but all over the place.

    Any special wire holders you suggest?

    A spark plug wire in the carb. That's a great combination. :)

    That damn Frank...always looking to take a short cut. Just doesn't want to wait till the fuel gets down to the cylinder to fire it up. :huh:

    Frank, I have actually seen wiring that looked like that. :biglaugh:

    I like Terry's friend, Frank's the best! That one wire stuck down in carb allows for the fuel and air to combust faster! :rofl:


    You kill me Terry's friend, Frank! :rofl2: Great pic!
