Plug wire supports

Would these plug wire supports be correct for a 69 Camaro?

Yep, those are correct.
Did you notice the front loom and the rear loom have angled supports?

Thanks

Yes, the front one is for the temperature sending wire, the back one is for the 2 plug wires from the 2 front cylinders.

Actually, the temp sender wire goes in the center slot; see the Assembly Manual, UPC 12, sheet A7.

My mistake not being more clear, I meant the ramp that points to the rear of the engine on the front bracket holds the wire.  I didn't notice the split in the middle of that bracket holds the wire also, but it does. Learn something new everyday.

Does anyone know the part number or a source to purchase the left outboard spark plug wire support (Cylinders 1 & 3) that also holds the temperature sending unit wire?  It is shown in "sixt9x33rs''s second photo, also shown on page 11 in Jerry's '69 book as well as UPC 12 sheet A7 on page 158 in the assembly manual.  Any help would be most appreciated.

These can be found by the millions of small block vehicles recycled or at swap meets.
I found these off of a 350 powered station wagon, stripped sent to plater now needed plastic coated. The tool handle dipping in a can product will work but is not meant for the heat and oil environment of an engine compartment. A true "Plastisol" dip would be best but difficult to source. *( the "can" will have to do)
aka: Military Specification Plastisol meeting MIL-P-20689 and A-A-59464. Automotive Specification Plastisol ESB-M4D148-A GM225M GM7001M and MS-DC513.

These might be repoped see Heartbeat Camaro as an option.?

Looking for big block wire supports.  Although they are out there, I can't seem to find the correct ones for my 67.  Any ideas?
