Spark Plug wires...

Anyone have a link to some OTV 10mm Red Spark Plug wires, And yes I want them to be red.. matches the color scheme ^_^. I found the ones from Magnacore but I'm not sure if they're Over the Valves. Any help will be appretiated. Also, it is to my understanding that NGK55 plugs are some of the best for an LT1. I was curious if this was true.

Thunder racing sells an OVC kit that includes the wires, looms, everything for the job.

The larger diameter wires are just market hype. An 8 mm wire has enough wrap around the core to do the job. Don't get too hung up on the diameter.

If you want to do this, just buy a universal set of wires with the opti ends and some OVC looms and you're good to go.

So 10mm wires aren't any better than 8mm?

flow is right, we're just talking packaging here and more insulation doesn't necessarily make a wire any better resistance wise.

I'd go with Taylor or Moroso 8mm. Just my suggestion fwiw.
