I have the Thunder Racing Taylor OVC wires in Red. I really like them. You can easily keep an eye on the wires so you shouldn't get any burnt wires. They also look good.

I think you have them switched...

MSD-32149 = Universal that you must cut to length yourself

MSD-32129 = Custom fit that go in the stock location

Don't want to confuse anyone going off these numbers when buying wires

No you said the MSD-32149 were the ones you have to cut yourself. They are the custom fit.

EDIT: I guess I messed up to in my original post. Just to straighten every thing out

MSD-32149 are custom fit
MSD-32129 are universal that must be cut

Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. The part number for the Taylor wires that I have is: TAY-74239. These wires are longer than stock, but they aren't long enough for OVC. I personally don't like the OVC look, I like to try to keep my engine bay as clutter free as possible. My wires are behind the headers, but not on the factory plug wire brackets. As I stated before, if you use heat reflective tape on certain portions of the plug wires that may come into contact with the headers, you won't have any problems running them in the stock location. You guys may also want to keep in mind that you should always try to keep the plug wires as short as possible.

yeah, i got the MSD-32129 = universal from Summit

also got this 3' section of foil-coated tubing, 1.25" dia, CoolIt or ThermoTec, can't remember, its some kind of cloth-like material covered in silver foil. the wire are routed through it coming up from the opti and behind the alt

then i had some of this corrugated silver reflecto tubing that was stiffer and you have to slice it down the middle and squeeze it back to cover it. with the Taylor 1200F firesleeves and that, i got nothing touching my OVC wires now, and they are well protected near the jet hot shorties.
