Be nice to make sure everything is in order before tossing on the fenders.

I've never done an LS swap before but I do have an extremely newbie question.
Forgive me for the ignorance on this question but the plug wires going over the headers? Will they get too hot?

If I ever get to wrench on Daphne(the green '72) planning on dropping an LS in her.

Looking great
Bomp, thanks for the comments!
I am really getting pumped on startin this thing up!
Not really an LS swap (LT-1) but regardless, the pics look deceiving, as there is 3/4" to an 1" of clearance between the pipes and the plug wires...I think that all is good!...If I ran the plug-wires underneath I think that the same, or worse conditions would exist.
