Default Over the valve cover wires

Is the set from Elite Spark Plugs
The same as this set from Thunder Racing (bottom of page)

Who has used the ones from Elite and have you had and problem with the wires being crappy? And from what I gather the wires are already crimped and you have to crimp your own with the Thunder Racing Kit?

I just ordered some new wires off thunder. Got the magnacore longer version for headers, and the OTVC kit they have. Hopefully it'll work out pretty nice, anyone else have this combo?

I think I'm gonna go with the Elite Kit. Its a little cheaper and you can get that heat sleeve on the wires, I like that.
