Default MSD wires on stock wiring route?

I know this topic has been beaten to death but not my specific question.

Anyways I have a quick question about MSD ignition in the near future. I have some cheap summit ones (Blue) on the car now and there were a pain to get to seat on the passengers side trey supporter(whatever its called) and a pain to get the clip on without popping off. They are 7.5mm IIRC, bigger than stock and smaller than the MSD’s 8.5mm. Question is would I need to reroute them since I highly doubt the MSD’s will fit in that trey supporter? Without that they will rub on the belt.

Not only is that my concern but im looking for a wire that has the best Voltage resistance.

MSD billet Opti is coming when either the Delco Unit craps out or when I pull the motor apart for a rebuild.

I'm running Moroso's "Blue Max" pre cut wire set, and I've routed the wires through the OE looms and brackets with absolutely no issues.

You guys had no issues with the clip that holds them in place? I would imagine with 8.5’s it would take some time getting it to fully clip.

Which "clip" are you referring to?
