Default High Temp Spark Plug Wires?

Hey all. New to the forum. Don't hate me.

Got a 2015 Camaro Z28 with the 7.0. We installed Kooks headers on the vehicle and we are having trouble with Cylinder 8 spark plug wire popping off. Does anyone have a recommendation for aftermarket wires that will A.) hold up against heat better. and B.) stay tighter on the plug itself so we dont have this issue in the future.


Any advice would be appreciated!


Thank you!

Accel 9065C wires. They have ceramic boots. 9065C is actually for trucks but are a little longer than the Accel 9070Cs that are listed as the part number for 5th Gens.
I have been using them for a couple years now with a turbo build and ARH shorty headers.

Thanks Blake!

I see these are listed for 01-04 GM with the 8.1 gasser. These will work the same for the 7.0? Interesting... I appreciate the info! Looks like I will be ordering a set of these!

Firecore : Best plug wires on the market hands down. Get the pro mod ends on there. You will hear a snap every time you put one on. We have Kooks 2" primary headers as well. You may want to get the truck length. Great people too and great customer service. You can get rid of those steel sleeves that are always a pita. Made right here in the good ole USA too.

Especially for the money, I've always had great luck with Taylor wires, they have nice pre-built for most applications and they come in 7/8/10mm.
Especially in applications where the wires have to touch unfriendly surfaces occasionally.

They are not "fancy" just nicely made heavy duty high temp wires.

Never had any luck with MSD, had too many DNF's at the road race track on many many cars..
Their plug ends crawl off even though they have a real positive click when they snap on..
