If you ever have the clamp come out of the boot problem Call Granatelli Motor Sports and we will replace the wire when the old one is sent back

What set of spark plug wires would you recommend for a L92/L99/LS3 motor?

Need a part number. Car does have headers and appears there is plenty of clearance.

Since I asked for an outside party for a back to back NA test I've received a few PM's that had done some tests stating they didn't gain anything. No other changes except for the wires. So I guess I won't be getting a set.

If they are well made, stand up to heat well, and warrantied well why not buy them? I still believe any difference would probably be timing related, but same performance with the above is still worth buying imo.

A well documented NA test would be great since turbo'ed LS's are by far the exception not the norm. Still really impressive video! Although MSD's are 50 OHM's per ft (equating to about 10-15 OHMS in a LS1 wire) and MUCH cheaper.

After pull 9 I decided the AFR and Timing looked good. No other changes I swapped from a stock wire to a set of Granatelli's. Only reason I bought them was the have a warranty and the burn resistant fabric. Son of a gun.. AFR staid the same, timing staid the same.

Having a hard time reading the numbers on the chart. Did you pick up around 15HP with the Granatelli spark plug wires?

By the way with my build I went ahead and purchased the Granatelli wires. I have one issue to resolve before I can even thank about making any dyno runs.

I gained 19rwhp at peak but as muc as 25rwhp bellow the curve. I was not expecting anything to tell you the truth. Could be my stock wires were junk. Dunno, just showing my back to back gains.

That's great to hear Lil SS. I didn't see any gains going from MSD wires to the gran's.

Yes stock wires are junk. Lots of resistance.

That is interesting with some good results. I hope I can see those gains on my motor.

Pardon my French, but holy ******* ****.

Seriously?

My MSD's are 3 years old and have come off at LEAST 5 times I'm aware of. I very well may be picking up a set of these.

Even 6hp/4ftlbs would be great to me.

Read post #54.. I went with Firecore50 wires myself. If most all the fastest guys prefer Firecore50 wires and they get nothing but good reviews that's good enough for me to use them. Do a search on the bullet for them.

JakeFusion went with those as well.

I do like the fact about the warranty...
