new spark plug wires
I just changed spark plugs after getting headers on to bosch platinums pregaped 4$ each. The stock wires fit loosely and kinda of close to the headers. Any aftermarket 45 degree angle that arent as close to the headers and stock appearing as well as affordable? Whats a good upgrade for spark plug wires for around 50$? stock duralast replacements are 50$ i seen a couple listed a high performance for 55$ under 99 corvette on the autozone website. Really looking to see if anyone has used the 45 degree angle i believe they are so they not as close to the primaries at the end.

The stock set with 90k feels loose around the coils. Has anyone tried these from autozone JBA Performance Wireset W08079 (autozone.com)

I used NGK TR55 plugs and GMPP red wires. You can add DEI Spark Plug Boot and Wire Protection if the wires are to close to your headers

The RED GM wires are the best ones you can get for the C5, numerous studies have confirmed the fact. There are others that are good but why take a chance. The amount of resistance in the red wires was in the optimal range during the GM testing, 0 resistance wires are not better. There are other good ones but why fight with success.
