Looking for opinions on a few FWF items I've been working on lately:
1. Securing wires and hoses. I've opted to use adel clamps attached to the engine mount to make sure that my wires and manifold pressure hose stay put. Is it recommended to use one clamp for wires and a different clamp for hoses? Or is it acceptable to bundle them together:
2. Securing starter and alternator wiring. I routed both the alternator B lead wire and starter power wire forward along the right side of the engine. A scrap seat belt anchor fit perfectly to make a bracket to secure that wire bundle. I used what appear to be an unused 5/16-18 threaded hole just above the air intake. Question: Is this really unused and free for me to abuse in this way?
3. Does anyone have any pictures of how they secured and routed their starter power wire? Im having trouble doing so in a way that doesn't put a tight bend in the wire.
