Default Long plug wires
Anyone know of a custom set of wires long enough to mount my coil packs under the dash? It's an LS3 into a 65 Chevelle.

Thanks,
Jay

I don't know the answer to your question...................but I was wondering if you could use the cut to length wires you make yourself?

We used a set of MSD LT1 cut to fit wires to put our coil packs inside the car.

So that would be like a 98 Camaro or Caprice right? And the LT1 boots fit the LS3 coil packs huh?

Thanks,
Jay

You could always buy the DIY kit to make them to your specific needs. I would expect that to come out much better than trying to get some pre-made kit to work.

I ended up finding where you could just buy the boots. You guys are right, seems like the better way to go. Not cheaper, but better.

Thanks,
Jay
