The model (AFV Club) is plastic and has spark plugs in the shape of little nubs rounded on top. I thought about attempting to dill holes in them for the wire to fit in but the rounded tops really seems to make a task that may be beyond my skill level. I did think I could drill out the nubs and use some round stock for the plugs which would be flat on top where I cold drill but I am faced with the same problem with the distributor. I am long on ideas and short on talent. What do you use to keep wire attached?
