John........early N-engines sparkie-wires were NOT very "water-proof" and needed extra protection from the elements provided by the tube. Modern copper-core silicon insulated sparkie wires are SOOooo much better. So unless yer rebuilding a trailer queen or are sphincterly challenged, I would NOT bother to putta tube on the engine.

I bought some copper-wire silicon insulated HOT-ROD sparkie wires for Pontiac V-8 for the right-angle sparkie booties under the gastank. (cut-to-fit) Simple, eh? ........Dell, yer self-appointed sparkie-meister
