Post plug wires VS. headers

what plug wires do you guys recomend using with SLP headers? my buddy already burnt up several Taylor wires. Also what are you guys using for wire looms?

Thumbs up

Use a good set of 8mm wires with 90 deg boots
and you should not have a problem.

I've got Edelbrock shorty headers and I've been using MSD Super Conductors (8.5mm & 90 degree boots) w/ the Taylor boots
I burned up a set of Accel 8mm wires in less than a week before I put these on. They have been going great and they don't show any signs of being burnt at all

i'm at work right now and don't have the summit catalog here,i'll post later and let you know the brand.they are the plastic ones that bolt right into each center bolt for the valve covers.then you just angle the plug boot the way you want it ,and tighten em up.mine haven't moved since.they are like 45 bucks ,but they do work well and look good.
hope this helps
