What plug wires for cars with headers?

Right now Im running 5 Accel wires that have the 90* boots and 3 Autozone special wires lol since the other 3 Accels had straight boots. The MSDs are a little out of my price range, but I read good things about the Moroso wires, do you guys have a pn I can check on for a set for 3rd gens with all 90* boots?

Thanks!

Im using the Accel universal 8mm spiral core wires. You have to cut them yourself but it inst hard and you can do whatever you want with them. Im using those accel header plugs...they are nice BUT the brass tips do come loose and you have to retighten everyonce in a while. I like the accel wires tho. You can get them at advance for like 40$ they all have 90 degree boots.

I'm with Slowmaro. I got the Accel 8mm "universal" set (comes with 90* HEI boots and old points-style boots) and trimmed them to length. It takes a little while, but it's a much cleaner install since you don't have extra wire hanging all over the place. Plus you can route them however you want to.
