Default Fox Body, Dynatech, Plug Wire problem

#3 plug wire boot is hitting the primary tube. LQ4 with truck coils and msd 32829 wires. It's the only one close, but it hits no matter how I move it.

I had to put a little bend and put a zip tie on to hold it in place on my #8 wire to keep it from hitting the steering shaft just a idea

Get a angled boot? That is what I may have to do on my 91 RS, I am using the headers off the 86 TA that had the 5.3, took it apart and man, that number 8 plug boot was toasted, explained a misfire I was having.

Thanks guys, I bought the multi angle boot wires, but haven't really tried to bend them that much. Didn't want to break a wire. Gonna try when I get home. Been working on this build since November and I hope to fire it up this weekend.
