Default i need some help with changing spark plug wires

My car is 95lt1 no headers. I have already changed all 8 spark plugs. changed all the spark plug wires on the drivers side but the passenger side leaves me clueless going about changing the wires. I have the alternator off and I'm thinking about taking the power steering pump off to help with more clearance? on the power steering pump is there just two bolts holding it on?
somebody please throw me some advice thanks!

2 10mm bolts hold the pump in place, and it will make things easier when you route the plug wires just be sure to watch that the pulley on the PS pump clears the wires

A "crows foot" socket will help you disconnect the power steering line. IIRC, it's a 16MM hex...

Removing the pump is a little annoying, but it will make accessing the wire loom a LOT easier.

When I did my plugs/wires on my '96, I removed the P/S pump and the "Y" pipe. It really opens up the passenger side.

Or you could delete the A/C I did that and haven't had ANY trouble running MSD plug wires.
