Default spark plug wires
Greetings

I have a 75 stock corvette with auto trans and AC, and the stock HEI ignition.

What is a good long lasting set of spark plug wires to use?
The brand name.

Thanx

Do you have a high performance engine? If not, just some $20 delco plugs should last your Vette as long as anything else imo

I don't drink the Koolaid on expensive plugs for stock or even mild street cars.

Any good quality wire set will do. You want to ensure the set is C3 Corvette specific.
