Default Pacesetter burnt wires

So i thought i routed my wires correctly but they are still burning. I installed them as far away from the headers as i could. They dont touch but are close and they burn. How did you guys route them? What brand did you guys use? the passager side is the only problem. Cylinder 4 is the one that burnt.

what plug wires are you running, and what style boots? darlingreject's car has msd wires that have the straight boot that can be bent. theyre a real pita to get on and off, but their wires are high temp resistant. i would suggest finding a set with 90* plug boots though. and if you dont have $100 for msd wires, get some plug wire boots. they will reflect the heat off the wires

I have 90 deg and OBX headers. If I remember right I had to drop that wire down and come back up to the plug. Real easy to do while its on the stand Almost 30K on the car, no issues yet
