Taylor Spiro Pro 8mm from summit any color $50 (about) :D

BTW the 8.5mm wires will not fit in your stock looms. the 8mm are a tight fit - too tight - but they will go in there.

Among all the items I have bought for my car's spring awakening, Taylor wires are in the pile somewhere.

Shhhh! Baby sleeping! :yawn:

I use the MSD 8.8s with an aftermarket wire loom...wires cut to fit by me. If you're looking for a wire in terms of gaining some kind of power or a better spark, look through the specs on different wires for the lowest resistance wire you can find....that's the only thing that matters (power-wise) for a plug wire. Bigger isn't necessarily better, look at the ohms per foot.

I have a 95 LT1. Were the lengths on the Taylors correct for the LT1?
And....anybody know about the fit for the Accel300+, they have a 8mm LT1 set.

Taylor makes a custom set of Spiro Pro wires for the LT1/4.
