tgpguy21 Posted March 20, 2004 Report Posted March 20, 2004 does anyone know what a good set of wires for our cars are? i think i remember hearing someone say msd? if so what part numbers are you guys getting and are they cut to fit and everything? thanks for any help. Quote
god910 Posted March 20, 2004 Report Posted March 20, 2004 I used a set of Accel 8.8's. (Custom fit for a V-8) The only down side was the #5 wire was REALLY tight, but it fit and didn't touch anything it wasn't supposed to. (Pics on the WWW) I'm still searching for a better set. (Stay away from Accel super stock spiral core) Really a set of GM replacement wires is what I would suggest if you don't want something flashy. Quote
tgpguy21 Posted March 22, 2004 Author Report Posted March 22, 2004 i would like to get some nice perfomance wires, and also dress up the engine bay alittle with some red wires. what part number were you using for those acells? also were they red by chance? Quote

If your wires work good then fine for you but I think Accel wires are junk. I know too many people that have had them fail for me to buy them. Quote

I know too many people that have had them fail for me to buy them. Easy cheesy, I bought them because they LOOK good. I know for a fact (I have had more than one wire tested on a sillyscope) that most wires aren't as good as a GM replacement wire. The ones I'm currently using are A) Yellow (Main goal) and I had a gift cert. that was about to run out (It was the freeby they give you on your first online order, I think it's like $25) so I just bought something on impulse. I'd like to get back w/ that scope and record my findings, but at the time it didn't seem like a big deal. Quote
tgpguy21 Posted March 24, 2004 Author Report Posted March 24, 2004 Taylor wires huh? isnt that a pretty well known company? I cant think of where else ive heard about them. does anyone know about this brand of wires? Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 I haven't ever heard anything bad about Taylor. I know people that have used them and they worked well for them. When I rebuild the turbo motor it going to have iridiums and either Taylor or Magnecor wires depending on what I can afford. Quote
