The pics don't show these brackets well. #1,3,2&4 wires run direct to plugs. The rest go "in" the metal brackets. The one pic with engine on hoist you can see the bare metal bracket on DS of motor. It runs the length of the block just below the head. PS bracket is slightly different. There are 2 small bolts that hold them on each side. The front one you remove the rear you just losen since it is a "slot" and not a "hole" to remove/install the brackets. Way easier to do with the engine on a stand...otherwise from underneath if motor is in car. Helps to pull starter.

Wiring...your app is not stock so dress wires in convuleted tubing as best you can. LT1's on B bodys had a big plastic intake cover to hide them...Vettes had plastic covers that look nicer IMHO...which I have in the pic
this is about the best i can do picture wise

yea i already talked to ls1speed on here and he siad i couldnt do it the one where it keeps ps and ac and moves the alt to the driver side bc of lack of space to the frame rails. So that is out of the questio. U still think its possible with those headers?
