Either get stock replacement from a local parts store, or spend the money and get MSD!!!!!

Nope, you might as well buy msd if your going to spend over a 100 for delco wires. This would be about the only time I don't recommend delco though!! Thats unless you found a place that sells delco wires for cheap, but I doubt it.

I just bought a set of Taylor Thundervolt 8.2mm wires precut with boots for factory location for like $63 from summit. I haven't installed them yet so I can't attest to how good they are but they are supposed to be only 50ohm resist per foot and have a spiral wound core.

Someone else might be able to tell if these are good wires though...price isn't bad if they are decent though.

If you want to do a cheap set of wires the jegs brand wires do good for the price and they have two different sizes!
