sparkplug wires?
S&P sells them in every color known to man. www.hotrodlane.cc. It's hard to find anything at their site, you might just be better to call em.

I'm not sure if there is something different about them or not, but in S&P's catalog, they list them as "Taylor Custom LS-1 Spark Plug Wires". On their web site describing use of them on a 56, they say "Taylor’s Spiro Pro LS-1 Red Spark Plug Wires for custom header applications".
The reason I point that out is that S&P costs are quite high for them. But I dont' know if they do something 'custom' to them or not...sizing/length or something.
For some things I think it is worth the extra $ for S&P (given their good support and all), but for spark plug wires, I'd probably go with a less expensive route. I do see a Taylor Pro wire listed at Summit Racing for about half the price.
By the way, if the wires require self install of ends, etc. I prefer to stay away from that. I never have really good luck with those ends staying on during spark plug changes.

thanks all for the info. I'm still not sure exactely what to get. I have s&p headers and all but #5 stock wires work fine, but #5 rests on the header tube. The ones in the picture up above look like they fit and with s&p headers, but now I'm more unsure. If s&p does in fact sell these then maybe they custom make them to fit their headers? I've searched for taylor and did find them at summit racing for LS1 specific but there is no picture so I just don't know what they look like or if they will fit.

But again, I don't know if S&Ps are custom for their headers or not. Maybe a call to them will answer that.
i got my Talor Wires from summit for around $60.get the ones for a truck the wires are about an inch and a half longer so they loop out more. I didnt have any part # I just called summit and ordered a set for a late model truck they come in red, black , and blue. good luck.

For LS1 SparkPlug Wires... Would you consider using the sparkplug wire "socks" that prevent the wire from getting too hot? They slide right over the whole wire & boot assembly & work well when you have headers.
