292 Spark Plug Wiring

Okay, I got my 64 F100 running and drivable with the rebuilt carburetor. Now I want to fix the spark plug wires that are wiretied to the master cylinder and the battery tray to keep them off the exhaust manifolds. I have ordered all of the brackets and plug wire holders.

Where can I find a picture or drawing of where all of these pieces attach?

I think they are pictured in the shop manual. if you have one of those.

Two of them are identical, if I remember right, nearly identical if I'm remembering wrong. They go just below the head at the rear sides of the block.
Another mounts to one of the intake flange holes on the passenger side head and sorta wraps around to the back of the head.
The last one mounts at the back of the block, behind the valley cover and toward the driver's side head.

If the mounting holes for these have been open for a while, then there may be a considerable amount of crud in them. Make sure to clean them well before mounting the brackets.

Thank you.

I have a shop manual but the drawing leaves a lot to be desired. I will try to figure it out.

You're right, the shop manual isn't particularly helpful on that score, but here are some pics shamelessly stolen from Y Blocksforever.com on the same question.

Well this is my next project plug wires got my electrical figured out, ordered a set of wires and the rubber routing four all total, it’s going to be tough. Not much room on the F-100 to work. Ordered my wires from the Y block guy in Bedford. Numbered and really nice set of wires. Should last a while. Bolts are missing and the holes are plugged with crap have go clean them out and run a tap to determine the thread and get some bolts. To mount the rubber blocks. The bolt on the left is where I want to connect my grounding wire to the engine. I have it in. Different location on the engine at the transmission, but I don't like it. AJ
