Dumb question about ignition wires
When you get a box of ignition wires why is there always one that’s not a elbow and it’s a straight what spark plug is it supposed to go on and it’s the worst it never goes on smooth

That "odd ball" plug wire is for cyl. #6, because of the dip stick interference. There's no clue about what year Corvette you're working with, but the last set I installed on my '84 was the Duralast 4076, and they fit perfect! If you're working with an L98 engine, I think there's one wire that's a different length than mine.
