need tips or tricks for getting to knock/starter wires.

about to do magnum mani install, and the FSM says, remove wires at various points, which is obvious. the knock and starter solenoid wiring look to be a bit of a hassle. so asking for any tips, tricks, if there are any, besides hiring that burger king guy from the commercial with the little tiny hands..

The knock sensor isn't bad from underneath, but the starter solenoid, and 8 gauge cable are a PITA.

But since you are changing IM's anyways, just unbolt the IM and get to them that way. It will still be in the way, but at least you can move it around. Pull the starter wires out of the injector harness, and route them under, the IM for a better IM removal in the future. ;)

Patience, of course, is a very powerful weapon, but sometimes I start to regret that it is not a firearm.
