10.5mm wires
Hey Guys,
Quick question. I'm running a 1985 Corvette and I need new wires. I found a seller online that sell high performance 10.5MM wires for a very reasonable price. Any idea if that will fit on my distributor and plugs?
Looks like factory plugs are between 8-8.5MM.
Thanks in advanced,

The problem you may have is with the #1 Spark plug wire on the distributor cap...not sure what wires you’re talking about but unless that wire is long enough to re-route...I have 10mm Livewires on my 89 and the boot was so jammed in between the plenum and distributor cap it was not “snapping” into place so I had to use a longer wire and re-route it...and of course you can’t use factory wire looms with the fatter wires I think over 8.5 inches is overkill on these cars unless you are running headers and need the thick jackets...

What would the larger wires do? Conduct more current that your ignition system might not use?
