MSD 8.5mm superconductor wires, the only wires I will put in my Vette. See the attached link. Excellent product at can't beat pricing, as far as I've seen. This is where I bought my plugs and wires. Great customer service and fast shipping too.

My experience.

I wasted my money on 10.4 Taylor Thunderbolts. Thought upgrading would maybe help performance a little when I got my 427ci put in. Aftermarket plug wires DO NOTHING for stock cars up to roughly 600 FWHP.
I saw ZERO performance enhancement and zero fuel mileage change. Then the pieces of crap broke while taking them off from barley pulling on them. 5 of them broke while pulling them by the BOOTS. The metal clip inside the boot stayed on the spark plug head so tight that the metal wiring came unthreading through the boots. Luckily I kept my factory stock wires. I pulled off all the rest of the crap Taylors and popped the factory wires back on. Same exact performance, same exact everything.

Then I started using $36.00 Advance Auto wires.......100% identical performance and gas mileage on my 427ci. ZERO difference.

Unless you're going high HP, nitrous, or forced induction high HP........DON'T waste your cash. You will get absolutely nothing from aftermarket wires. But most people listen to the marketing bullshit. so......

IMO, Taylor wires suck, waste of money. MSD wires on the other hand are of really good quality and LAST. Thats why I buy MSD, because they have always lasted a long long time.

MSD 8.5s here too! I like the spark plug ends of the wires let you adjust them out of the way of the long tubes.

This^^^ Blancoss normally has a good deal on wires and TR55's. Performance wires there really won't be any difference.

Pretty much you buy the wires and get the plugs for free.

I don't think anyone payed attention to the hitting the header part.....

I use MSD's because they bend, pop them on the plug then bend them over off of the header.



Use NGK plugs, always. If you are not spraying it or boost, NGK TR55's are the common plug to use.

I agree... I made well over 700FWHP on old stock 100k mile junk yard wires and lasted 3 years... now have them on my new setup w/ more power and they dont miss a beat. People shouldnt waste their money.

yep stick with factory. i've been using them and never one problem with them. They are mass produced on cars for a reason. if they weren't any good they wouldn't use them for liability purposes.

I completely agree, I wouldn't recommend the MSD's except that they are made to bend and stay off the headers.
