I have 8mm on mine with the Duraspark ignition. I don't think you need the 8.8 until you're really starting to pucsh some high energy through the wires with something like a race ignition. That's just me though.

I use the Summit Racing brand cut to fit (blue of course) 8mm wires, MSD6A box and a Mallory coil. It puts out enough juice to blow the top off (literally) of a cheap distributor cap, but the wires are holding up very well.
