I've had an arcing problem for forever now. It has a new ac delco opti, msd wires, ngk plugs, and it will arc off of the coil wire and the farthest back plug/wire on the driver said is arcing. I've had several sets of wires, ngk wires, ac delco wires and now msd's and it still does it. I still have stock manifolds too.

go to WS6store and get the Accel one's. they are supposed to eliminate the arching i guess. Oh well. I paid $135 for my A/C delco's and put the Accel boot covers on them and it's mostly gone but does it from time to time. I may buy the accel's anyway and change them as i don't want ANY arching

yeah they eliminated almost all of it. Although it does arch every once in a while i may try the Accel wires that aren't supposed to arch and see if they work good along with the sleeves. by the way, nice new signature pic Revelation Z28
