Ok, now I, need some help here. I admit I am in unknown to me, territory here. 
I have a 1966 Studebaker Cruiser with the 283 GM Engine. It has been converted to a GM Delco HEI Distributor, which I know 0 about, not a GM Guy.
The problem is I want to install New Plug Wires, but I want them to route the correct way that Stude. and probably early Chevelle 283, 327's with Ram Horn Exhaust Manifolds did, clamped along the Oil Pan to keep them totally away from those top mounted Hot manifolds.
But it is my understanding that if I buy them for the length required for a old '64 Chevelle, the length may? be good, but they will be 7mm, and I understand it is a requirement with an HEI, to have the newer 8mm type because of the increased Voltage.
So what Plug Wires do all of you Modified owners use in this situation?
I know very little about Chev./GM Engines, so please Help!
