LS1 with S&P Headers.. What plug wires??

[skeeters65]

69 Camaro with LS1 and S&P Headers..
I just installed them today and the headers touch the plug wires..
The coils are in the stock location..

What are you guys using??

Thanks

best bet is going to be to get some spark plug socks to match the rest of the car.

If I'm not mistaken, S&P sells a set of longer/angled plug wires to clear their headers. Check the S&P catalog. Good Luck, Larry

They have a set for $102.95..

I'm using S&P headers and am having a similar problem. After installing the first set I received, I found that the #6 tube was bent in such a way that I couldn't get the boot over the plug. I returned the pass. side and they sent me a replacement. Looked good, but after installing, now #4 is the problem though not as bad. The boot almost touches the tube.

I'm using a set of Taylor 8.2mm with straight boots #84244

Are those wires with the straight boots working out OK for you??

The wires seem to be fine. Although I don't have much running time on the motor to tell about how well they will hold up.

Here's a couple pics:

Thise straight plugs look just like the stock ones??

Did you say you used the S&P ones and they were no good??

Thanks

They are smaller in diameter than the stockers. Stock ones have the metal jacket.

Never tried the S&P wires.
