I'm happy with the MSD Streetfires I bought from Summit.

Yeah be careful cause I bought some aftermarket MSD 8.8 and they dont fit in stock looms. If you get a sotck size MSD I think that maybe a good upgrade. Maybe even a AC delco set if you dont care about having a aftermarket name brand.

If you want the stock look, then your best bet is going to be to replace them with the ACDelco ones. Find them on eBay from thepartsladi or at a place like Mid-America.

I used the premium wires from Standard motor Parts they where 45 dollars at the local parts store. They where identical to the original AC wires except the looms where not on them-I can't confirm if they come on the AC wires though

Just get the GM stock AC Delco replacements or stock equivalents from any of the local auto parts stores such as NAPA.
