Default Plug Wire Question ?

In your opinion...What's the Best Plug Wires that compromise performance with longevity. My MSD Super Conductor 8.5 mm's are not holding up.
Keeps shorting #6 on Exhaust Manifold though not touching it.

How do you have your wire routed? I'm going on over 1.5 years with my MSDs and #6 (and the others) are fine.

I have MSDs on the IROC for over 5yrs with Edelbrock TES headers and all are fine.

On the Vette I run TPIS wires routed per stocks. Make sure there is a little loop in #6 to keep it away from hot metal.
