Wanted: Feedback on MSD wires

Skipponator · August 15, 2005

Looking on replacing wires, how are the MSD 8.5mm wires for the 6.0? I've had good luck with them on my Grand Prix so thought I'd try them on the truck, otherwise what else is good, PRJ? Thanks,

Skip,

The MSD 8.5mm have been great on my 5.7L. They're a snug fit especially if you use aftermarket wire looms but they do a great job.

Hope this helps.

8mm Talor wires seem to work very well. Also colorful and affordable.

I think that on the new ignition, the individual coil packs for each cylinder, going with a high end wire doesn't reap the benefits you might think. The wires are so short and are such a short distance to the plugs.

On the older ignition systems with distrubutor cap, then I would definatly go with some nice 8.5mm wires.

Just a thought.........
