Question Spark Plug Wire Looms

What are you guys using to keep your ignition wires organized in your engine compartment?

Organized? You mean so the spark doesn't get confused and come out the wrong wire?

I took a bunch of pics of Dave V's. engine compartment in a car show a few months ago, and decided to follow his lead and use this kit:

Here are a couple pics I took to show you what they look like installed.

I know I know. Extremely old thread. However those pics of Dave V's wire looms made me purchase a set for my 455. I ordered this from Summit:
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rnm-1113p/overview/
They will not line up with the upper bolts but did with the lower bolts. Maybe this one will line up with the uppers:

The difference is wire loom position. Horizontal v. Vertical. Hope this info helps out someone looking to purchase one of these kits.

I ordered the 90 degree set (1113-90-S) from Summit Racing and they do not line up with the upper bolts either. They will only line up with the lower bolt holes.
