Do a search for 99BlancoSS. He sells a complete OTVC kit.

As you no doubt have figured out, you cannot use OTVC using the stock wires. Also, you should not use them if you have stock manifolds - only headers.

I ran MSD SBC wires with LT1 straight end plugs put on them. Seemed to fit like they were made for the car.
