MSD wires
would they help much with my setup? it revs a little higher now and was wondering if this might affect it. i also have 30# injectors if that matters. the wires i have on there are all i could afford at the time. they are orielly house brand. should i just get some acdelcos and leave it or what?

Honestly I haven't noticed any performance difference between the high end MSD wires and the cheap Duralast wires. The thicker MSD wires will probably last longer due to more insulation, and will probably be less likely to ark to anything. But if you route the wires properly, use plug wire heat insulating boots at the plug boots by the headers, you should have no problems using any wires.

are these moroso wires custom made to fit LT1s ? or did u just use the uni ones ?

No matter what wires you run, be sure and put some di-electric grease on every boot. This will aid in preventing the electrically-leaky boot issues, and make them easier to remove when the time comes.

I've seen more threads and post with your name bashing everything but your wires. I have to say it's rather funny cause if it's not your product it just plain sucks.

Its reality. Its not my wire its MSD's system that makes it better. I build hundered of these sets and I know the difference. I can use any wire on the market but I choose to use what I feel is the best.
Sorry if you dont like to hear it but when your spending money and your stuff falls apart your find better solutions.
I have been there and done that and try to help people from making the same mistakes.
SO when I see a thread I post accurate information to assist in someone making an informed decision.
Its been my experience that Taylor and Morosso are inferior wires to the MSD.

My taylors fell apart in a year as well as my stockers and some other cheap jegs wires all with fiberglass boot shields. I took the plunge and ordered the OTVC Msd ones from ccperformanceparts I hope they last and perform better then all the others i have used, i am expecting a lot out of these wires. I can say plug wires have been a nightmare for this car. I guess i will let you guys know in a year or so. hahaha

No doubt, I always advise my customer that this is not a performance mod there is no power gain unless your wires have degradation.
Most guys buying wires have gone to headers and are looking for the extra heat protection the MSD silicone boot offers. Others want to the OTVC kit. And then there are those who have had their factory wires dry out and get all cracked.
But with my lifetime warranty you cant really go wrong. MSD is a great performance wire and is engineered with intent.

I have the MSDs and they tested at a very low resistance compared to others I have laying around. I think they are decent wires. With that said I may buy MSD wires again, but nothing else. My MSD opti failed in a week, still waiting for the techs to respond on my multiple e mail inquires with more than a mass e mail( going on 3 1/2 weeks). Luckily Baxter auto parts/performance parts warehouse backed it quickly and the new one has much less play in it and seems to work. With that said I will not buy MSD products as long as I can avoid it (other than wires) due to very poor warranty/customer service.

I just got my MSD OTVC wires from CCperformance and they look very nice. I am impressed with them so far they look like they were assembled with care and the boots look more insulated as well. I'm pumped. Im going to ohm them out and keep track of how they do as they age.
