Crab-style distributor cap.
I have a set of Accel spark plug wires that I spent (probably) too much money on. Custom cut for a 350 SBC. The problem is, no matter how I arrange them, one or two of the wires is too short. I can't use the wire looms I bought to keep them from forming a rat's nest. Also, in order to reach, some of the distributor boots have to be pulled in tight and they cross over each other. Rather than buying a whole new set that I custom cut myself, I thought I remember seeing a crab-style distributor cap (for a HEI) where the terminals are cross wired so that the spark plug wires are 1-3-5-7 on the left side and 2-4-6-8 on the right.
Anyone seen those around? I've searched the net and Summit with no luck.
I suspect other folks had problems also, because Summit doesn't carry them any more. If I still had the box, I'd return them to Summit.Jack
