Title: Which automotive spark plug wires?
Post by: Rudemouthsky on August 29, 2013, 10:07:51 AM
Using red dyna coils if that makes a difference. I already have a pair of NGK Titanium resistor plugs with the non removable caps. I need these wires tonight, can't wait for OEM or TPO wires. Thanks...

If you have a local speed shop, they might stock bulk Magnacor wire.

8mm or 7mm? Copper core? And what kind of ends? Cap on or cap off? I need something that works with the cap on. Thx again...

My Magnecors are 8.5mm and are a silicone with a propriety 2.5mm Metallic Inductance Suppressed Conductor. Not much help but they sell them complete. My friend owns Magnecor UK and he makes them up ends and all to your spec, but they are not cheap, still neither are the OEM leads.

Just got the el cheapo generic bs from Auto Zone for $5. Bike is running much better now with working plug wires. ;)

[thumbsup] as long as they're red, you'll be fine.
