Spark Plug Wires

Time for wires for me... Had a couple of issues with the Taylors in the past but put them up there anyways. Let me know what you guys think! Please specify if other!

Re: Spark Plug Wires

If you have long tube headers, I would give a vote for elitesparkplugs.com If not, then MSDs would be my next choice.

Re: Spark Plug Wires

I have mids right now and going LT's in the near future... Did you suggest them because they are over the valve cover?

Re: Spark Plug Wires

Magnecor 8.5MM Wires are the best but are also most expensive. Work great on my fully modded N/A LT1 383

Re: Spark Plug Wires

go with accel extreme 9000's. i think that is what they are called. i have had nothing but trouble with Taylors and when i switched to the Accel's, what a difference. Also i think the Accel's can be had online for about 50 bucks!

Re: Spark Plug Wires

I'm using the MSD 8.5 wires. I have the LT headers and don't really see the need for OVC. But I had already bought my wires for a tuneup before I decided to get the LT headers.

Re: Spark Plug Wires

If assembled correctly, I don't see how you guys are having problems with any name-brand wires. I've been running the same set of Taylors for the past 2 years without any issues whatsoever.
