Default Taylor 10.4mm wires

Are any of you guys running these wires; If so how are they? I am going to be buying new wires soon, I want to be sure I buy some that can hold up to a lot of heat.http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TAY-79204/?rtype=10

sounds overkill to me, but if they are better in heat and for that price...I wonder.

10.3 10.4 and 10.5's seem to be the big new thing in the aftermarket world. theres a set on ebay i saw 10.5's for lt1's i was actually going to give a shot simply because there only 40 bucks shipped new, if they dont stand up, 40 bucks isnt a big deal, hell autozone cheapo's arent much cheaper.

Anything bigger than 9mm is an absolute waste. You're only paying for thicker insulation, the core is the same. The thicker wires are a pain in the *** to route and handle.

JMHO of course. I've been using the MSD 8.5mms and love them.

I have a set Thundervoldt 10.4's w/ a little less than 1K miles on for sale. Perfect condition, only selling as I'm switching to a COP setup. Had no issues w/ routing either, just as easy w/ 8.5mm wires etc. 75.00 shipped.
