Which gauge loom to you guys use for your wiring under the hoods. i dont know if i need 3/8", 1/4" etc etc.. giong with the blue . think it will look good with the blue loom on white of my car and im going to paint my engine block white and the paint the 3400 SFI blue to go with the loom... maybe could even get some white loom to do both white and blue.. maybe white for the plug wires, and white along the cold air intake, and then blue for rest of wiring.. how do you all think that will look?

My $.02 again. Don't mix-n-match colors in such a confined area. Either do all blue in the engine bay or all white. You can go on ebay and find packages that have three different sizes for all the wires in our engine. I will see if I can get another link for you.

stick with white because you have a white car unless your looking to change it up a bit. Its really up to you, its your car. You don't want to do every hose in your engine bay, that would be too much. I think one would be just fine but if you like more than go with two.

^ Yeah, just look in the automotive section, it's there, they just don't carry the high heat clearcoat. You'll have better selection & more brands though if you go to AutoZone or another auto parts store.

BTW: I think blue loom for everything but white for the plug wires would look nice

I plan to do my loom in red. I have done other cars in blue, and it looks great either way. I hadn't thought of doing white, I figured it would show a lot of dirt.
