its best to do the wires when the water pump and all is outa the way, easier if you take the alternator out, starter off and move outa the way. i would rate it a 12 pack job.

I absolutely hated running the wires with manifolds on the passenger side. Long tube headers with over the valve cover wires is so much cleaner.

There's a plastic loom/guide/holder on the passenger side near the PS pulley that fits wires with the stock thickness... but it's much easier to route the wires over the AC compressor and up behind the manifolds.
