Hi All,
Just a note and some pic's on the new spark plug wire conduit that I made for Fisher the 8N. I like the looks that having the spark plug wires inside the conduit. I hate having to mangle it around to get the head bolts/nuts torqued and fishing the plug wires through it is always a joy. Fisher the 8N didnt have the conduit on it when I bought it and had been converted to a round coil so the addition of the coil wire to the bundle was going to overcrowd to standard conduit. I talked to my local muffler dude and had him bend a piece of 1 1/2" dia tube with a 90 degree bend and a 10 degree bend for the offset. This cost me $15. I left some extra on the ends to trim off as needed. I wanted to make the conduit removable to get at the head nuts/bolts -- so I welded a bracket on the front that bolts to the alternator bracket and a T bracket that is clamped between the oil filter mounting bracket and the head. I also will have a temperature sending unit wire going through the conduit along with the alternator wires.
