What's up guys. I finally had it with ford racing wires. I just burnt my 2nd set. #5,7,8 were toast just like last time. And the boot sucks on these wires, they just crumbled off. Not going back to FRPP wires. EVER!

1st. I need recommendation on which wires i should go for. I know i will get mixed opinions. Should i just go for MSD? I have heard good things about Taylor wires.

2nd is i finally tried $100 spark plugs(I got them for free from my boss). I got set of DENSO iridium plugs and "YES" i can tell the difference in performance. I have always used autolites or motorcrafts but these iridiums are special. but they do have way more plug reach and i was getting kind of scared when i was installing them and inspecting them. but they are performing really awesome so far. does this plug reach will be ok in a long run? they seem perfect for now. and the plugs were pre gaped.

3rd i never learned much about ignition but what is MSD 6AL everyone is recomending ? what do this box do other then controlling rev limit?

So in order to make everything work in harmony i will need a good set of spark plug wires and i need your recommendation other then FRPP wires(NO) and i will not be doing Livewires either due to their performance/quality lack(had these too)

Just to let you know that i have MSD dizzy and coil, Module already. My other mods are on the bottom.

Thanks fellas.

If you want plugs with unburnable boots...get some jacobs ceramic wires. THere very expensive $180 for a set but the boots are ceramic and can sit on a header no problem. Thats the only thing I can think of better than live wires. I ran them for a few years on my equal length shorty headers with great success. Get the 90 deg. boot versions too.
