Default Best Plug Wire with LT Headers????

Going to be installing headers soon and I just wanted to buy all the extra parts ahead of time......

Which wire brand is best with Headers that wont get destroyed from the extra heat?

Stockers? , Red LS6'rs?

Thanks

I used to like MSD's (long boot, that you can push away from headers), but 2 of them went to **** (200,000+ ohms compared to 28 ohms)

I'm back to stock wires, and like them. (LS2 wires have a 90 degree bend, that get them away from the header. I'm thinking about going to those.)

Just looked at the LS2/LS7 wires in some pics. The 90 degree bend on the spark plug end looks like it would work good to direct the wire away from the header tube.

Anyone running these LS2/LS7 Wires?

I used the stock ones on my install, on since Dec, a so far no problems (couldn't see spending the extra $$$ when they work just fine)

I would say that the MSD Universal or the cut to fit set would be appropriate.
I use/used both on 4 different longtube setups.

I had the MSD's, but as stated before, a few of them got burned and went to ****.

Now I'm running the LS2 wires and love them. Do a search, you'll find some pics of them.

I got the red GMPP wires from SDPC. They look great and are cheaper than MSD.
