WTB wiring clips on valve cover - see picture

[Stein-man]

A couple of questions:

- Are the clips on the upper valve cover bolts for the water divider wiring correct to have on my '72 Tii?  None came on my car, sadly.

- Secondly, does anyone have a pair of these they would be willing to part with?  

Thank you!

I ended up making a pair for my own car...drill... some small pieces of steel... was only a minor PITA but glad I did it.

But Paul - how did you know what they really looked like so that you could make repros?  ?

Hey Rob,

    The wire holders on the passenger side are for the plug wires only. If you'll look at that picture, there is a small holder on the center nut of the drivers side valve cover, this clamp carries the water port wires, It's a very simple clamp and impossible to find.

Hi, Danny -

I have the clamp that carries the front two plug wires.  Up next to the plenum, there are two more small clips that hold what appears to be the wiring for the water divider.  Are these correct for my '72 Tii?  (Haven't got an answer to that one yet).   If they are correct for my April '72 car, does anyone have two of these to spare?  

Thanks!

Hi

 

It is # 1 in this diagram, really should have 2, one on the middle v/c bolt and one on the back end bolt   or it is very similar to what is shown here

So, you still have the diagnostic plug in at the rear vc nut? If so, yes one clamp to hold the front 2 wires and the pic is correct, there are 2 of the small clamps along the top vc nuts that carry the wires for the coolant temp sensor for cold start and the cold start valve wires.

Great work fishing that out of the parts book.  All search results come un N/A, sadly.

Yes, I have the rear VC plug in.  When Favorite vendor gets me the parts, I will also have a harness.  If you have one of those clips, that would give me a great model to make a bunch more from, if you are willing to part with it.  Also, great routing tip: the rear clip holds the cold start And the cold start valve wire, the front one only the cold start wire.  Thanks, Danny!

Rob, I saw that you have those clips on you're amazing car on BAT.  Where did you get them?  I am looking for all 3 of those holders.

I had a real one, so I "made" a set of four of them, "close enough".  I yellow zinced them with my little kit, and voila!

Rob - I'm just starting in on a Tii rebuild and am trying to source some of clips (13311256511) and haven't had much luck.  Would it be possible to share some detail pictures / dimensions so I can make up my own set?

Thanks -
