Yeah. Sorry about that
Here is the update from that thread:
Powerflite - 2016-11-15 10:02 AM You could probably just use pallet bands - you know the metal straps that they use to tie pallets down. That stuff is quite springy, but not so much that you can't bend it. The hard part is going to be putting in the little bends that prevent it from galling the plug wires. But if you can do those first, you should be able to get it to work.

Those clips, and the metal covers that go over the wires, just freak me out. Especially when used with the crummy old style spark plug wire insulation.
The whole goal is to keep plug wires AWAY from metal, not purposely encase it in metal. It's just begging for an arcing to take place.
The pallet band metal would work.
(I think
). There is a product called PlastiDip that could be used to make the metal less likely to abraid through the spark plug wire insulation and cause arcing.
Another alternative is to fashion the clips from plastic somehow. Would be a good 3D printing exercise. Hint Hint.
(Somebody?
