What's the difference between Heli-cores and Superconductors?
These two kinds of MSD wires, what's the difference besides color and price?
And does a set of MSD wires come with the coil wire?
Thanks,
Homer

the boots for the plugs and cap is alot thicker and bigger than the heli-core. (they are also a little harder to install)
btw msd super conductor wires have a restanice of 40-50ohms per foot, i don't know what the heli-core wires are,
the best i have seen is morsco's wres 40ohms per foot, and the set was 165.

i dont think the boots are that much bigger and could be the same size as the heli core ones. I have heli cores on my car, and me and my friend just put some superconductors on his 67 mustang, and i didnt notice any different

i put heli-core on my best friends 87 iroc-305tpi- and i put super conductor on my car-89 iroc 305tp. the 3 difernces that i noticed between the sets
1- superconductor is a larger wires, and seems to be a little stiffer.
2-superconductor wires had a arger boot, the plug also sat more in the boot.
3- my set had another wire for the coil, (but that has no efect.)

i wouldn't know that- 87 had a in cap coil, my 89 has a external coil. thats why i said my set has another wire for the coil, when in comparison his didn't even have the wire because there was no need.
