Default Custom plug wires

Hey guys,

I need a set of custom plug wires for my LS2 (I am doing a coil pack relocate and I need to make the wires my self to fit)

Can you guys give me some links to wire kits?

I do no want to spend too much, but I don't want no names... (around $50 would be about right)

Thanks!

I know I need coil connectors and plug connector but I don't know which ones to get...

I really want taylor 10.4mm wire... but If I can't get that I will take 8.5mm MSD wire

you will need LT1 distributor ends for the coils. and depending on how you plan on routing your wires, you could get straight, 90*, or 45*. i ran mine under my headersand used 90* boots for the plugs. i just ordered LT1 MSD 8.5mm wires

I used a set of ACCELS 8.5 for a old 350 bout $30. They where a bit to long but thats good so i can pull them out. I used the old coil plugs cut the old plug wires and yanked the plugs off and took of the conectors and put them on the new wires. Car hasnt had a problem. Ill see if I can get some pics. Also made custom brackets for them. Takes more time to make them then it does to install. I also would tell you to give a shout to Chrome & Proformance. They guy who runs it knows his LSXs and is very clean bout them.

Hmm looks like I was wrong. But that was the first thing I thought of when I saw "coil pack relocation."

I e-mailed Chrome and Performance...

But this is not for a F-body... Not sure how much he will be able to help.

Thanks for your input though guys!
