Default Ignition wires???

Ok im getting ready to do headers and i noticed the kit were you can get headers and ignition wires. But that was with the shorty headers..... Is it that important to go to higher temp wires with long tubes as well? The headers im going to get are that "armor coating" from texas speed so that shouldnt be as hot right?

You don't need to worry about any of that just get some MSD 8.5mm wires. All you need to worry about is make sure the boots aren't in contact with the headers, otherwise you are good with most any wire. I just prefer the MSD's they seem to be the most durable.
