Default Has anyone tried re-routing the plug wires on an LTI

I saw a picture somewhere where a guy got longer cables and routed them straight up from the opti, over the alternator, and down to the plugs. Anyone try something like this,and if so, how did you get the longer cables?

really there is only reason to do this is looks cuz its not helpful in any way cuz a longer wire makes for more resistance and that makes for less spark and taht makes for bad day so the moral of this story shorter wires make better spark and yes for those that will say the low resistance wires are exempt from this i assure you that your wrong

which pulley and if its the ps then you need to pull the ps pump off ans route the wires back behind it there is groove that hold the wires in place make for an easy fix just pain in the *** it should be 2 bolts and you dont even have to pull the pulley off the holes in the pulley allow access to them

Just thought I would jump in here....The plug wires I have won't fit into the slots behind the PS pump so I had to run the behind the pulley without the slots....They are Livewire plugs....They are huge !
