Default Plug wires MSD or???

Anybody know what is a direct fit that I do not have to cut? I ordered some MSD's from Summit and didn't notice they were a universal set that had to be cut to fit.

Anything for a LS1 or LS6 should be a direct fit for our cars. Corvette, Trans-Am... Hope this helps.

I have 2005 Corvette plug wires; (I think) just take them out of the box and match 1 up to the factory wires.

I've heard that before and know you feel the stockers are fine, but I'd prefer to have the MSD's.

I have heard that the MSD ones have problems from time to time.

I know some of the fastest L67/L32 supercharged cars are using stock.

If you really want the best wires, see if Paul @ PRJPerformance can make you a set.

I ended up going with Magnacore part # 85229. Unfortunately they do not fit as at the plug end they are straight, but ours have a 90 degree bend. Therefore they are too short. Also they do not slip into our coil pack either due to design.

I make custom length MSD 8.5mm superconductor wires as well as sell the ones your looking for.

I guaranty my handcrafted wire for 5yrs same as the factory wire. The part number your looking for is 32819. I don't have any reds ones in stock but I do have black $64.40 with a free set of NGK plugs. Pm me if interested. I use only MSD Superconductor 8.5mm wire and components.
