Default Spark plug wires
I want to replace the spark plug wires on my 94' vette I got a month or so ago that has 100k miles. The aftermarket sets have 6 @ 90 degrees and 2 straight. Why is this? I replaced the plugs a week ago and all wires were 90 degrees. This is probably a dumb question but I don't know which get the straight wires. Thanks.

Thanks for the answer. The wires @ 90 were a little hard to get off on #6 and #8.
