Default Plug Wires?

Im about to install my pacesetter longtubes and i was going to reuse the stock wires, can that be done? Will i be able to route them away from the header primaries?

Thanks
Josh

I kept mine when I switched from shorties to LT's. I would change the plugs while you have the easy access though

I haven't had too much luck with the basic Taylor wires handling the heat. Can someone just point me to the OTVC brackets? I'd like to experiment with some different wire sets and routings.
