Short answer is no. Almost positive you'd have to use the longer 'under the exhaust manifold/header' type to get the length needed, or just buy the wire in bulk and crimp your own. The DUI LiveWires I got that are over the manifold are way to short to go into a loom along the valvecovers. On the LiveWires, I used zip ties, because the wires have a protective sleeve over them that makes them too fat for regular wire separators.

I've tried the 90* boot Pertronix Flamethrower wires too, and they seemed like they might be long enough, but it would be really close.
