Any one have a recommendation on plug wires? I don’t need a high end set, still just running the stock ignition but would like to find a set that is decent and wont cost an arm and a leg.

I'm running the FMS wires on my car. I've had them on there now for 5 years or so and have had no problems with them.

Same here. They have cylinder numbers on them with the Ford logo. I think they are pretty cool looking.

There was a test in one of the mags that said the MSD were the least resistant wire out there.

Personally i've been using Taylor Spiro Pros for years and haven't had any problems.

I read that MSD has bendable boots to keep the wires away from the headers, so there's no truth to that?
