Brief Description:  Spark plugs + terminal block

Sonex LLC says that for the upper rear spark plug wires, run them over the exhaust pipe as in photo #1, but then support the wire off the intake pipe to keep the plug wire off the hot exhaust. OK, but it would be easier and more elegant if they just gave us an extra 4" of wire so we could run the wire over the top of the intake pipe, instead.

These two plugs are damn hard to get on! The reason being that the clip that grabs the spark plug tip is free to rotate in the black plastic boot. So you can never tell if the spark plug wire is actually clipped onto the spark plug, or if it just feels like it, and the clip is actually just resting on top of the spark plug, with the book keeping it from falling off. If the wire were stationary in the boot then you'd know that if the boot were straight, the clip would be engaging the plug. Little things like this would make a big difference.

Added a terminal block for future power distribution (photo #2). The rivnuts were already in the firewall from when I had the master relay mounted here. So I used those holes to install a terminal block IN CASE I want to take power off the master relay and distribute it. My wiring diagram is pretty complete, but as I learn new things sometimes the plan changes. This way I have a distribution point if I need one.
