which spark plug wires? Recently changed my plugs to NGK TR55 vpower coppers when I installed my long tube headers, and now think I should maybe replace the spark plug wires.
Which wires should I go with? There seems to be many choices.

you need to check out the the web on grantelli spark plug wires that's what I am going to change to theres so many out there saying there the best but all of them pull high ohms theres a almost zero resistance on grantelli spark plug wires and if I remember correctly msd comes in second. less resistance means more spark equals more efficient burn equals more ponies lol. they make ls2 plug wires ls1 and ls3 for a good fit. check it out on u tube look it up and see what you think. there color options or limited I think blue or green but heck of a plug wire.

^^^bet you own a sham wow too 
seriously though, there is tons of info out there are plug wires. Don't take it personally if this one ends up being locked down.

I was happy with my GM Performance wires, but I don't think there is a "bad" set. MSD is always popular, especially with the NGK plugs it seems. Taylor is the only set I've heard of people having issues of them coming apart. ThunderVolt 10.4 or whatever they are called used to be pretty popular... ten years ago

I put MSD's on my car when we installed LT's at 60k or so, and at 130k with another plug change, they still work great. The boots are bendable, making for great clearance at all the primaries.

what length MSDs are you guys going with? 6" is the stock length right?
I put back whatever wires were on the car before, which look to be the stock wires after I installed my long tubes. need to check to see if they are melting.
