MSD LS1 coils are junk, that’s a well known fact for a few years now. Their other products though are widely used and some are even made for GM by MSD.
But we're talking about wires here not coils or any other products they make.. If you want go down that road you will lose in a heartbeat. They have many products that are used every day by pro's in racing so let’s just keep to the subject matter of spark plug wires.
baxom knocks the MSD wires every chance he gets. Simple as that. He had one set ( not from me) didn’t us them right and now proclaims them to be junk. Jumps on any chance he can get to knock them and always says the same thing and the result is always the same. User error.
Your more than welcome to jump in his boat but just know you’re not providing any useful information. Your more than welcome to your opinion.,. but facts are what we're talking about here. I use the verbiage that MSD uses... IMHO we offer the best deal on one of the best wires on the market. fact and opinion mixed together

Just for the sake of discussion,,, Can you dissect a MSD Wire and a GM Wire and do a side by side comparison of the material/construction/terminals/cores, etc.....?
I like the GM Red wires because they are inexpensive, fit very well, use the stock shields and I have never had any issues with their construction, materials or reliability.
I will say this in support of 99blancoss. I you need a CUSTOM SET OF WIRES, look no further. 100% the best guy to go to!

Looks like I am not the only one that is fooled by the MSD Kool Aid around here. To be fair, The set I put on my C5 were crap. The set my buddy put on his C5 Z06 fell apart the first time a boot was pulled. The set the shop custom made for my C3 454 melted even though they were all at least 1/4 inch away from the header, The MSD distributer in my 454 died and was replaced by a DUI system. The MSD 6AL that was in my turbo eclipse died as well (very common problem if you follow those boards) so yeah, when people ask their opinion of which wire to get, I am going to give my opinion. You are free to follow suit with your opinion and let the buyer make a decision. 58 dollars is a good price for this product I'll give you that and anyone that just absolutely feels that their car wont run unless it has MSD wires is getting a good deal.
