Default Truck coil wires

Hey guys, I am upgrading to truck coils and was wondering does anyone know if there are any plug wires that are one inch longer than stock with straight bottoms at the plug end, instead of a 90 like the truck wires have. I don't really want a make your own kit.

The truck wires are about 1 inch longer than the ls1 wires, i dont know about having straight ends, the stock lqx motors have 45* boots.

I was trying to use my stock trays which put the coils down a little too far, and made the stock truck wires look too long. I called speed inc and they said that the truck trays put the coils higher so the wires look the right length. They also said that msd truck wires are straight at the plug. I ordered both. Some good info in case anyone is doing this. Thank you for your response, I appreciate your help. Dan
