Are you talking about not fitting the wire looms? if so take a drill bit and open them up a little.

Personally I didn't use the MSD wires because I knew they don't fit the looms. I chose the Taylor 8mm because they fit the the looms.

Anyway my buddy put the MSD wires on his 95 LT1 which is basically the same and he didn't have any issues with length, only the looms being too small in diameter.

Did you match up the #6 and #8 wires before you installed them? Are they the same length?

Default thanx allt4

the #6 and # 8 plug wires have straight boots and both hit the evap case. on the odd side the wires seem too short. by the way i have just installed em long tube headers and the wires look as if they will fit the stock manifolds great. thanx

Ehh, well since my hood was up I took some pictures of the even side. Maybe someone else can find them usefull for stock. It's hard to get pictures down in there.
