Slip one over an engine mount tube and fasten another one to the first with a bolt and lock nut. This second clamp is used to hold the wire bundle. You select a size for the loop on the first clamp to grab the steel tube and the other one as required to fit the wire bundle. You should be using MS 22759 Tefzel wire for your whole airplane, but particularly ahead of the firewall - it's HOT up there and Tefzel can live happily at very high temps. Brent's method of using firesleeve as a wiring conduit sounds great and if I ever have to do a major re-wiring up front, I'll use that technique. No matter how your wires are cabled, however, the double adel clamp method of hanging the them is still a good way to go.
