Headers Coming, What Plug Wire?
I have headers on the way. I was wondering what plug wires you would recommend? Is keeping the stock ones a wize option?
Thanks,

I'm using the Taylor Thundervolt 50 10.4 mm wires and have not had any problems with them. Got em at a good price from a supporting vendor.

MSD's then take the factory heatshields, remove the springs, and then slide the heatshield over the MSD's without a problem.

I'm running the exact same setup. Whatever wire you decide to run, with headers you better go with the cool sox.

I have Crane FireWire's... they were recommended by a local shop here and were the same price as the MSD's... I was gonna reuse the stockers, but ripped one when I installed the headers.. and needed a set fast..

Stock with stock heat shields is all you need. No need to waste your money.
