Default Plug wires with flipped truck manifolds?

Now I only have a flipped manifold on the passenger side, but what is everyone doing to keep from burning the plug wires up? I thought about mounting my coils on the fenderwell and not worry about getting wires around the manifold... any ideas would be appreciated. Also, I thought about running wires underneath, around the back of the head and back forward to the coils, but I can't seem to find any long wires anywhere?

Not sure if it would help, but MSD wires are bendable. You might be able to bend them where they dont touch the manifold.

Get a build your own wires type kit and make some with 90* boots on the coil end, run them around either end of the head, front or back doesn't matter, and to the cylinders. Summit should have a few different kits.

I dont see why a set of wires like what Supercharger Connection sells wouldnt work just fine?
