Solid core plug wires

Like Granatelli, good idea or bad? I have a feeling that it will be instant death for opti.

I don't have any reason to believe that they would be instant death for the opti, but...

Plug wires aren't going to have any real effect on performance unless they go bad... There's nothing wrong with the stock AC Delco wires and there are plenty of aftermarket companies that make good wire sets including some nice over the valve cover sets...

Going with a solid core non resistor wire just doesn't seem to have any benefit...

solid core wires = electrical interference

No place for them on a car with electronics AFAIK.
