    61 leftover part?

    I recently had engine rebuilt for 270hp and installed many correct & dated items. Two "leftover" parts were not installed. GM part # 3744408 spark plug wire clip/support on block (pageA110 in assembly manual) and spark plug wire clip-Oil pan, part # ?. These were in Corv.Central Ignition shield kit. Question is, I can't see if old ones were used or these were just omitted from rehaul on engine compartment. The clip on the block is under the generator and spark plug heat shield. Are these important? Is there an easy way to see them? Would any deductions be made in judging because of there absence? Thanks for any input...Bruce #39024

    bruce: you need to install the clips as judges expect to see them and the clips also keep plug wire in position( ie, prevent chaffing of plug wire insulation). easier to do when engine on engine stand, but can be done after engine installed.good luck, mike
