The main reason for otvc wires i believe is to prevent burned wires. The other pro is that it looks cooler. You can buy a kit and it will take about two hours and your done.

thunderracing sells a kit, works good and it makes wire changes much eaisier without them being tucked under the manifolds. and if you have headers you will probably want to run otvc to prevent burnt wires.

What they said The most important reason is to get the wires AWAY
from the primaries.
