The MSD wires never did me wrong and the Accell extreme 9000 for wires too close to the tube.

I have seven taylor wires if you want them (5000 miles). Name a price. One broke so I just got a different set of wires. They are red.

Are they 10.4 mm ?

They are 8mm. If you are still interested it's about an hour and a half drive from Orlando to Ocala.

Ocala is in the top middle.

I've come to the conclusion that there is no difference in performance between the factory wires and any aftermarket wires. There's alot of things that can't be improved to a measurable amount to make it worth it.
(ie: factory paper air filters are as good or better than K&N)

I'll probably get some new wires soon so I can have them in red, but I see no rush at all.
