Well, ****, so I just need to find a old school wire set with all 8 wires 10" long...
Surely someone with a old skool SBC has to have a set of wires laying around. LOL

Yeah firecore is great. I ordered Sunday and got them Wednesday. Just replaced my msd's because you guys spooked me lol and Lazer thought he heard a miss. I'm switching to a projected tip plug too so we'll see if there's a difference

I got the wires in from firecore, and they made a huge mistake...

You can clearly see that they put the sparkplug boots up top where the coil end is supposed to be, and the coil boot on the bottom where the spark plug boot is supposed to be. heavy sigh. Same damn thing happens when I buy boxes of nails too.


So, after cutting all the ends off and reattaching them, I finally got the wires ready to install


I'm trying to compress the video, but I'll upload it soon. Got a nice little coolant burp!

Looking good Darth.
Nice to hear it.
Looks like you will be revving beyond the RPM shown on the gauge.
Is the other corvette next to the pontiac your car also?
I know what you look like now. Haha
I can look at the screen and say thanks for the lifters.

Sounds angry! Get that break in done so we can see some rubber being laid down!

BTW It looks like your exhaust tips look crooked.

The vette is my wife's. We call it the slow car. stock LS2, heavy clutch, etc, etc. That's the one I want to bump the compression to 11.5, put in a 224/224 cam with a wide LSA and some decent springs, ATI dampener, RPS clutch, fast intake, 102 throttle, and otherwise leave it alone. Would be a very enjoyable sleeper without my wife hating the car. Two years ago, she told me she wishes it was "just a little faster", so that's permission! My motor blowing up interrupted those plans.

LMAO. They are. My plan is to get them welded vs clamped when I convert from slip fit to V band.

I don't think the vids do it justice. My wife just told me she's never heard anything sound like that before, and she's used to my builds. We are heading to the beach for a day, so Sunday is when I'll be able to load it up and seat the rings.

Pretty sure I remember you posting that when she said it.....seems completely reason to do a "stockish DD build".

Well that does not suck. Sounds good mang! She’s snappy. Oil pressure gauge is happy. It’s amazing what a good set of plug wires can accomplish.

Sounds good.. it's gonna rip. Vids never do the sound justice, especially if taken with iphone. I've filmed mine with cut-out open and it sounds so mean in person and on the screen it comes across as meh.
