Plug wires
After just searching the internet I can not find beyond all reason of doubt the proper part # for the 8.5mm MSD plug wires for a 2010 GS?
Are these the ones?

Just bough this set. Its not the MSD wires that you are looking for. They are HD ,larger than stock in diameter. Relocated the coils on the vc ,so these are too long. Not as nice looking as the MSD ones .

I looked at those, I guess they are the right ones,I thought Z06 was different part number. Ok thanks, I found them a little cheaper here...

You would think less resistance in a wire has to be better like larger diameter speak wire,but with such a short wire length you think these wires will give a hotter spark for better combustion? or am I just getting them for the cool red color to match the engine cover?

I'm of the mindset: no matter how short the wire, these are less resistance and better build quality than factory - that makes a better plug wire to me. Oh yeah, and they're red, too.

Yes, those are the correct ones (p/n 32819). Same ones I use on my truck. Pretty good price, too - with shipping I only found 1 place cheaper and that was only by a dollar.
