I have recently read on this forum alot of people saying MSD spark plug wires are junk. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the Granatelli wires.I dont think I have ever seen them mentioned.

I researched wires a while back... Consensus was that the G's were a waste of money. The best are the GM wires, MSD's and Taylors. I went with the Taylors, but have since heard that they may not last as long (they tend to fall apart if you remove them a few times).

Stay with stock or a set of MSD wires. Granatelli = snake oil.

I have Granatelli wires and they work fine. I got them at SEMA a couple of years ago as gift.

I have used MSD wires for years on all my LSx based GM vehicles and have never had a problem. They worked well and lasted a long time!

Who says MSD wires are junk?
