On most 8cyl 3rd gens there are 2 spark plug wire retainers that get affixed to the back of the heads, one on each side. They are usualy black and have 4 slots in them, there is also a mateing clip with 4 slots in them that snap in holding the wires in place. I need 2 of thise clips. I have the bracket portion but I am missing just the clips. Does anyone have any of these clips?

Are you doing a resto that they need to be exact? I have a bunch of different types of clips, but they might not be exact? I'll see what I have this weekend.

Na, just developed a miss in my tahoe, opened the hood and found the #7 wire on the manifold, replaced the wires last night and the clips i bought off the motormite help board at autosuck are the wrong ones, i went back today and saw that they are the only GM style, i am going to try NAPA tonight unless someone has them

i think i have come across them in wire sets from napa. not positive though. if napa doesn't have a listing, you could get them from the dealer....probably like $20 :lol:

Alamntia would you like me to check down at my family's NAPA? Might have some on our Help! rack.
