Yes, I should have taken a picture prior to taking things apart. I did not so can anyone help me here. I am putting my 1962 40HP Johnson back together. I need to know what the proper routing for the spark plug wires. Anyone have pictures they can post?

Are you talking about under the mag plate?

Just looking for a photo of the left side of the motor showing the lines running out from under the mag plate and down to the plugs.

Just keep em tight to the block, so that they dont catch on the cowl, and leave enough so that the magneto can fully rotate when at WOT in gear and youre good to go. No special routing required.
