What Spark Plug Wires?

I own a '93 Z28 with OEM, yes I said OEM, spark plugs. The car has 84,000 miles on it and I need to change them, obviously. I'm not looking for something for hard-core racing, and I'm going to install Bosch Platinum +4's, so help me out.

Re: What Spark Plug Wires?

OEM wires and spark plugs are fine for a lightly modified engine. If the price of the OEM wires is high, the Accel 9000 wires are nicely made and are only slightly larger (8mm vs 7.5mm) diameter than the stock wires, therefore they'll fit in the stock looms with only minor persuation.

don't waste the $$$$ on the 4+

get the NGK tr55 plugs for $2 each, taylor spiro-pro wires for $50 and be done with it.

they are more than sufficient for most street engines, are affordable and will fit in stock wire looms

I'm with him, on all points. I personally got the OTVC kit with TR55's from Thunder, and have had no problems.
