    Default Spark Plug Wires

    I'm looking for a set with decent cables and 90 degree ends for the spark plugs, which will fit better under my head cooling ducts. Local auto parts guys can't seem to locate anything, even a universal set that I can assemble. Any recommendations?

    Appreciate the link. Looks like those are preassembled with a straight boot on the plug end. Wish there was more info, or a Pertronix item # to verify what they are. Those 4 digit #s don't translate.

    Chris Cox at Noble engine makes up sets as need for each cooling application
    Most of his sets are straight at coil to 90 degree at heads.

    Thanks for the tip, Sherman. I'll keep it in mind.

    FWIW, you can see that these have been relieved to fit the larger straight boots. I plan to repair them and use 90 degree boots.

    Those might be okay. On the subject of quality, from what I've seen most of the wires have a resistance of 350-500 ohms/foot. For a Vee, would it be worth getting these Taylor wires with a claimed resistance of just 40 ohms/foot?

    I use old school Beldon solid core copper tinned spark plug wires wires, these connectors should fit:

    Wasn't the Nology coil and grounded spark plug wires the 'hot ticket' in FV a few years ago?
