These wires already come straight from the factory with the terminals and boots already installed and are ready to plug and play, right? I don't know about the rest of you, but it makes me cringe to think of the result of having some $7 or $8 an hour grunt on an assembly line doing nothing but installing spark plug terminals and boots all day. I can see where there would be ALOT of potential for problems in a situation like that. Maybe the reason Elite is having such a hard time keeping up with orders might be because they have a huge turnover rate? (I mean c'mon, how long could the average person stand to do such a mundane, tedious task as installing spark plug boots?) If that's the case it might explain why their quality seems to have gone straight into the crapper. New employees never know what the hell's going on so there's a good chance that alot of these wires that are going out the door are sets that a newbie got to "practice" on. (Or were made by some guy who doesn't think $8 an hour is enough pay for him to care.) Not a reassuring thought.
