What is your favorite brand of spark plug wires?
I've never thought much about plug wire brands. Avoid the cheap stuff and buy what looks like decent quality. I did that with the ones I currently have on my T-Bird, but I don't like them at all. They've come off plugs now three times since I bought them a year ago. Just want something that will go on a plug and NOT come off. Good quality conductors, too.

Re: What is your favorite brand of spark plug wires?
I've never had any problems with the wire sets I bought from Larry's Thunderbird, and I'm running MSD units on both cars. No cross fire, no missing, and no falling off. Boots holding up fine next to the headers.
I've also used the Moroso universal sets and terminated them myself. I bought the special crimp tool, it's got interchangeable jaws and will do everything from 18 gauge up to plug wires, insulated or plain terminals. |

I have Taylor on two of my cars with no problems. Been on the cars quite a long time. I use the universal sets so I can custom make the lengths. Got their tool which works great.

One more thing I'll throw in. I've never found better routing and securing of the plug wires than the factory looms. I had mine powder coated bright silver, looks almost like chrome. Black, they'd go away if you prefer.

CASCO https://www.classictbird.com/Plug-Wi...ctinfo/12259B/ yes, they are expensive - much of that I believe is because of the "original" appearance. but at any rate they are quality parts

Re: What is your favorite brand of spark plug wires?
Thanks Hot Rod Reverend. Those look very promising.
KULTULZ, HP would work fine for me, as my car isn't 100% original. I don't really want neon orange, red or green, though. I'd guess that HP would be less likely to become inadvertently pulled - or be spontaneously disconnected - from a spark plug. |

In that case, TAYLOR makes very good wires. Look for a 7MM as they look stock but are premium wires.
EDIT - Thought they were TAYLOR ... https://pertronix.com/plug-wires-and...tock-look.html
