So apparently my BBK headers are too close to my spark plug wires, and they melt the insulation, leading to Bad Things. I've moved the plug wires to keep them as far away as possible, but not a lot of space in there.
Does anyone have a recommendation for high-temp plug wires? Anyone else have a problem like this? I'm considering Granatelli's, but don't really want to spend $200 on plug wires if something else will work as well.

You can go this route which is probably what I'll do when I go FI.

Accel Ceramic Boot Plug Wires

Look up shorty header spark plugs. I was having this issue with my z28. These shorty plus should give you enough clearance. Also, some high temp boots will help.

Hey Javier,
High temp ceramic boots should help. There are several companies selling them. Slip over the wires and prevent burning. Heat will eventually degrade any of the wires but this helps them last a little longer.
