I use the basic stock routing, but add a few of the wire seperators and zip tie them back away from the headers.

If you're using thicker then stock wires just be careful to make sure you have plenty of clearance where the wires run near the power steering pump pulley. I've had my wires touch enough to cut 2 wires.

I have the Jethot longtube headers, I found an offset wrench works very well for changing plugs. But #6 is the hardest SOB to get to. Very little room to rotate the wrench from the top, and the header tubes do a bunch of turns right under it. Changing the #6 is always good for a bunch of cursing and tool throwing cause if you drop the plug, it slides down into where the 4 pipes merge so I spend 20 minutes fishing it out, no matter how many rags a stuff in there the dang sparkplugs finds some way to get stuck in there....
