I cam across a thread a day or two ago mentioning a cheap set of lt1 plug wires that were cut to fit that would work for ls engines. Anyone know?

OR better yet whats a wallet friendly set that comes cut to fit. I have stock truck wires, and can use those, but figure while im working on the harness i might as well relocate the coil packs now.

Yes the LT1 distributor cap boots work with the LS coils. I buy sets from Jegs for an LT1 car (Camaro, Corvette, Caprice, etc). You can shorten them by buying a new set of terminals for the plug ends but on a friends turbo Camaro they worked as is with creative routing.

I do the same thing. Get LT1 wires and whatever spark plug end you want.

Awesome thanks guys!

After looking on jegs for a bit i saw these. They have a 90* on both ends, may help better with hiding the coils and tucking the wires tighter to the block if running under the headers. Wish they were a darker color tho.

I guess the main question would be will those boots fit the ignition coils?


Edit: it seems that if they offer different boots for LT. that the normal ones won't fit. Please correct me if im wrong!

Those won't work, check the applications, they are for 67-86 Chevy vans and trucks......
