Default Headers & Plug wires?

you guys running header with some MSD or any other wires, are you using the stock metal shield or using some other form of heat wrap so the wires dont burn up?

or nothing at all?

Nothing. Just bend them out of the way. I've never had an issue

i had a plug rub up against my Kooks. Contact NastyN8 (sponsor) on here and he will hook you up with plugs, wires and heat socks. at a great price. if you run headers, i recommend using the heat socks.

Same here, but if any will be close then use some type of heat barrier.

X2 on having nothing on them. I have the same wires and I believe the same headers that you are running, with no issues.
