Hi all,
I'm wondering if any supercharged Vettes out there have changed there spark plug wires and are there any suggestions?
I found my Vette missing over the weekend and suspected the ignition wire. I recently changed out the plugs to NGK TR6's and noticed one of the wires was not sitting too well. This weekend I thought about changing the plug wires and noticed that this job was almost impossible to do.
Is there a simple way to change out the wires or do I have to take apart the Supercharger and belts on the front of the car?
P.S. Also had the car on a hoist and it's impossible to get to from below.
Appreciate any input.

Well, they are quite a pain in the butt, but definitly not impossibe! I have a Vortech with an ATI intercooler. Just take you time. You can get to them all! Removing the head unit is not MANDITORY, but it sure does make it easier.
For wires, I have had great luck with Taylor wires on supercharged as well as NA cars. They are the best wires I have found!
Good Luck,
