Default Longer plug wires?

Is there a longer plug wire for the ls1? I moved my coils and am looking for a plug a couple inches longer. Looking for somthing off another car that will be easy to find. THANKS!

I used AC Delco wires for a 2003 Tahoe and they were longer (about 2" I think? ) otherwise looked identical.

Magnecor will also make a set a little longer for you too, at no extra charge. All you have to do is tell them exactly what length you want. I like their KV 85s. Very nice quality and competitively priced too through several forum vendors.

Thanks for not following up with your Plug wire question Pal! LOL

Chevy 2500 Big Block wires are what you used right?

I think he bought a set of custom length wires from us to fit perfectly instead of having wire flopping onto the manifold or header.

Less money than the truck set and perfect in length for the application.
