The Ford Barn

I may have posted this question in another one of my posts, a different subject; so let me post it again under the "correct" subject.

New to the "Y Block" engine; and in checking over this recently obtained 54 Customline; I noticed (since on this Ford the distributor is in the rear) the spark plug wires running behind the engine.

On my 54 the wires were running, coming into contact with the carb linkage; just didn't look correct.

I did some "gathering", utilizing the "zip tie plug holder" system, and somewhat gathered and lifted them away from the linkage.

Q. Does Anyone have a good pic, drawing, or schematic as to how those wires run, any clamps needed, etc.:
