Default 135* angled spark plug wires

I have a set of taylor 135* plug wires that will work perfect with my custom headers. Only thing is...they don't come with the coil hookup for ls1s. I see that MSD doesn't make anything other than straight and 90*s. I'm in a little bit of a pickle because I *have* to use these 135s. Any ideas?

I bought the 90* Taylors because when I relocated my coils I wanted to hide the plug wires too. I routed them between the heads and headers. Can't even see the black wires, pretty trick.

If you buy the universal 135* boot kit and the LT1 optispark ends(same as the LS1 coil end) with crimper tool you can make your own plug wires. I did!!!

I should be able to buy the LT1 opti ends by themselves, at least I think. Thanks! Let me know when your relocation kit is done, already had my eye on them.

I did get the kit done. Here's a thread showing the prototype photos.

p.s.- That link you posted below only shows the main page. We couldn't see what you were referring to. If you call Thunder Racing they have the LT1 opti-ends and the crimp tool. Good luck!
