Re: wires? (fiberglasscoffin)
Taylor is good. I use MSD Superconductor they only have 40 ohms per foot resistance. I had a new set of Moroso Blue Max on my car and when I switched to the MSD Digital-7 it just blew right through the side of them and I had fire flying everywhere. I installed the Superconductor wires and no problem since.

Re: wires? (fiberglasscoffin)
My new MSD 8.5 mm wire from the ignition coil to the distributor arc'd against the water pump housing at the wire/boot junction. I had to wrap the wire/boot
junction in black electrical tape. That was before any ignition mods too.
Just keep an eye on it. Watch it in a dark garage

I use Jacob's 8.5mm Energy Core with ceramic boots (because my headers kept melting the other brands). They work very well with a potent ignition and 12psi boost.
If you've got a few bucks to spend, Magnecore wires are awesome.
