      need new spark plug wires... what kind?

      I'm relocation my coil packs and need to get a new set of cut to length wires. I was looking at Summit for some idea's and noticed that there is 8.mm, 8.2mm, 8.5mm, 8.8mm, 10.4mm... so many choices. I need a kit that has 90* boots on both ends in black if possible. Any one have any input?

      Looking for the best high performance set I can get.

      Thanks.

      10.4 mm are very hard to route...

      I went with 8.5 mm MSD SuperConductor wires in Black. They also have them with 90 deg plugs...

      Taylor is pretty much all we use. They are bullet proof around tight headers.

      I've had good luck buying parts from these guys and making up the wires as needed.

      I've looked at the wires you guys listed above but they are either 90 with straights or short replacements. Maybe I missed it. Does anyone have a part number to something I need. I ordered some from summit and had to call right back and cancel it because after looking at my coils I don't think the 90's that come with the kit will snap on the coils. If you look inside the coil the contact is pretty far inside it.

      Hey Mike, I looked at the numbers you have there and they are pre made sets. I need a kit that I can cut to length because I relocated my coils. The 72005 for trucks are made up on both ends and the 74044 are the stock little wires that you find on the ls cars originally.

      I will dig up more parts numbers. I thought those were cut to fit since they were listed in my catalog as custom fit sets

      I too carry Taylor and wholly recommend those. I've had Taylor make a custom set of wires for me in the past a few times...they'll help you out if you call 'em up. Btw, those are custom wiresets but they are factory cut length wires. I'm not sure they sell to the public but try calling them and ask for Mike-he'll help ya out!
