best plug wires for LTs?

[RogerBzSS]

nope I did not measure the resistance of the msd's

used the claim to fame as advertised, I'll pop a few off to check later today though
for curiosity sakes

Taylor 409 race in color of red, no issues, excellent fit, smoother idle. But like when I posted the upgrade of mine, it's like politics everyone is going to think their opinions are the best but go with what you want and be happy.

Will look into some sleeves for sure, can't pay for granatellis at the moment.

I have the same headers and have 20K+ miles on the stock wires.

Everyone has their opinion on what they feel is best. I went with these because I liked the look, fit, and price. You will notice some of the other brands being sold you have to over stretch to get a good fit. Not the case with these. I ordered through Maryland and had then shipped to my door for $65.

Those look good.

I have the Taylor 409 wires as well with the XS Power headers.

I have a post on here somewhere showing the measured resistance of each set.

That post with all the wires and their ohms is why I saved my pennies and went with granatelli.

Disregard this post. Tapatalk messed up

I have a feeling that entire thread may have been deleted, but let me see if I can find it.

I'm glad it was useful to someone but I can't find that post anywhere. If I recall correctly I had a pciture with all of the wires and my Fluke meter. It would be easy to get the numbers again since the stock and MSD wires aren't on the car and the Granatelli wires were all within 1 ohm, maybe less, of zero.

msd no contact .....no need for heat wraps

SAME here and aprx 30k miles between 3 Ls's no contact no issues and all make power.

Does anybody know how much current travels through the plug wires when they send power to the plug? I would guess that it VERY low current.

Usually less than 1 amp. However, they are around 30k volts.
