Hey,
So I am putting my engine together for my '64 NY and it's going well so far but I am trying to track down these spark plug wire grommets. They fit in the arms coming off the valve covers (presumably to keep the wires off the exhaust manifolds) the places that have them (eBay and Classic Auto parts) want $34 for four of these (I need eight). Plus shipping - which in one case - was $58 from a guy on ebay. What I'd like to do (if someone hasn't done this already) is build a cad drawing of one of these and print them on a 3D printer. After I am done I have no problem sharing the cad file(s) with the community for free - what I am looking for in return is some better pictures of these AND if I'm VERY lucky maybe some measurements in mm. Unless someone has done this already. Any help would be very much appreciated. Here's a pic of what I am talking about - and a pic of my engine as I can't stop looking at and sharing since I painted it.
Cheers,
Angus
