quick truck spark plug wire question? Long story short im sick of aftermarket wires. ive been using msds and after taking them off a couple times i dont feel confident that they are on the coil and plug all the way. it just doesnt click nicely like the factory plugs.i have a slight mis now and i think its the wires
this is on a turbo setup and i need to be able to bent the part of the wire that goes to the plug slightly about 60 degrees for it to clear the header.
Can u bend the truck plug wires? I need these because they are longer also.

I haven't been able to find any wire that clicks on as solid as the factory wires.
The problem with the MSD's are that when you take them on and off, over time the metal that goes over the plug widens. try bending them back tight with your hand, or with pliers..
I had a bad miss, and discovered that I had one with the metal on the end was cracked, and eventually broke off. I bought a new set of MSD's, and that solved the problem. The first set lasted 3 years, and would have lasted longer if not for a few engine changes, and on and off while reading plugs on nitrous use.
If anyone knows of a good plug wire that clicks on as solid as the stock ones, I'd like to know.
