Best plug wires for a 454 with headers???
One more time. Brand? Part number? How you like them?

I plan to either go with Taylor or Accel 300+ Race Wire. :D

Borg warner select plug wires and fiberglass boot protectors. Only combo that lasts on my 454.

They're pricey but will be the last set you'll ever have to buy. Even if something goes wrong they have a lifetime warranty. :thumbs:

I tried everything to keep boots on #1 and #3 cylinders but finally bought 2 Jacob ceramic boots and that solved my problems. They were $40 each CDN but they last a life time. I used Accel wires for the other 6 cylinders without any problems.

I went with Taylor 409's , they have a lot of protection built in into them , I also added boot protectors.
