Y block plug wire bracket configuration

Just installed distributer and plug wires on my '63 F350. I opted to change the plug wire brackets and insulators but made the mistake of removing them prior to getting the new ones. Took longer than what I thought to get the new brackets and for the life of me I can't figure out how they get back on. I have been unable to find any diagrams, can anyone point me in the right direction? I still have the cross exhaust and need to keep the wires off the hot section with the original configuration. Thanks for the help

Dan

I have a nice version, that lays out the various measurements of the plug wires which go between the mounting blocks as well as the direction that the blocks go on. It helps, because, once you get the wires in the rubber blocks, it's hard to move them. A little lube in the blocks makes it easier to make adjustments. If you send me your email, I'll scan the doc. and send it to you. You can email me directly at ehershkowitz@Hotmail.com. Be sure and put the subject, so I don't discard your message.
