I am curious if anyone has found 90 degree spark plug boots that fit onto the plugs with carbs and the CFR throttle linkage.

When the wires come straight up, out of the shrouds they have to bend and rest against the bottom of the carbs.
I am guessing there is some leakage of the spark with the wires rubbing like that.

Any ideas?

The 911 wires look like they would work, but maybe still a little tall...

Here is my issue:

So the 90 degree boots for the rear two cyls only need to stick down about 1-1/2 inches from the engine tins
I was thinking some thing like the K.90 LT1 for the rear two and try the 'Bends to Fit for the fronts:

Any body tried the bends to fit from MSD?
