I am finishing securing the spark plug wires from the mags. I would like to know if it is acceptable to clamp them to the braided oil line with DG clamps ? I have searched high and low without success. If it is dumb I do not want to do it, but if it is acceptable I would like to know.
Thanks

Typically it is not good practice to clamp fluid and electrical lines in the same bundle. If they are routed in parallel, stand-offs are acceptable but it is best to have the stand-offs attached to some structure rather than simply relying on the routed lines/wires to support each other. So, for instance, if you are routing along an engine mount tube, be sure each stand-off also attaches to the mount and that the interval is sufficient to support both lines as well as preventing them from interfering with each other.
 
Thanks Patrick. I will go back and see what other avenues I have for routing.
