Yeah belden is the napa brand of wires. By wires i mean all wires, battery cables, regular spools of wire, plug wires, etc. I personally use MSD 8.5mm plug wires on mine, bought them from summit, no complaints.

Belden is a major bulk wire manufacturer, as well as formed
cables for PCs etc. I've never run across them doing any
performance type stuff but no doubt they are a source
for other peoples' materials. I also use MSD wires after
having the Taylors come apart on me. But stockers are
also said to be plenty good enough, if you don't need
them to be red or something important like that.

**** dude, most of that stuff is all made in the same place and put in different boxes. OMG NGK I'd never use anything else... Pointless having worked at napa in my high school years I can tell you that I've never heard anyone complain about belden wires and I remember customers bitching about everything but I can't think of a wires incident

I've heard people complain about almost everything, not wires though. Working at napa really shows you how retarded most people are. Actually had a lady try and blame us for her A/C not working after i put wiper blades on her.
