I need a plug Wire..

I put 8.5mm MSDs on like 2 months ago...but I burnt a plug wire in the very back on the passenger side...How should I go about replacing this thing??


Anyone have an extra 8.5mm MSD plug wire layin around

I know around here, at O'reilly's you can buy single plug wires. I had the same problem, my alternator cut through a wire so i stopped by and picked one up. I dont think it was a MSD 8.5mm but it was close enough, and alot cheaper/easier than buying a whole new set.

Yeah, buy a bag of cable ties while you are at it and route those wires better. Cable ties were my best friend when I ran stock wire routing for a short period of time.

Yeah, the OTVC setup was not bulletproof for me either, but still way better then the stock style. I still have a couple of cable ties securing a couple of wires away from potential trouble spots.
