Default Moroso Ultra 40s

I just got finished swapping the plug wires over from the MSD with coolsox to the Moroso Ultra 40s with stock metal shields. The MSD's have been in the car for about 2 1/2 years and you can tell. The rubber boots were cracked from the heat and the spark plug wires were grounding out to the headers. The Moroso Ultra 40s are a race wire that supposedly has the lowest resistance on the market. I really like them because they already have a heat sleeve from the factory. They are the most expensive ones on the market so time will tell if they are good or not. I post back soon.

Let us know have they work out. Some of the aftermarket headers for the f-bodies run close to a couple of the spark plug wires.

Are the wires the same length as the stockers? If they are, you shouldn't have too much trouble with grounding out. Some aftermarket wires are longer causing the slack to ground out. If they are stock length, they should be pretty tight and shouldn't ground out. I have been looking at these for a while now, just haven't needed to spend $100 on them yet. Let us know how they do.
