Which spark plug wires are best?

I'm looking to get a new set of plug wires for my 89 gta, and i would like some of your guys opinions? I like Msd wires, but my car now has accel plug wires on it,and I just don't like them for some reason, I also need the part number on the wires so i know I get the right plug wires. Thanks for any input.

i had accel regular super stock (or whatever they are called) and i really didnt like them. they were small diameter, and it seems like a lot got burned. not sure if it was because of where they were routed, or because of the insulation that accell uses.

i have MSD super condutctors, and i LOVE them. havent burned one yet, and they are not exactly "far" from my exhaust. they work great, and the boots and wires are top quality.

i would give you the part number, but mine is a weird one, and i have a couple custom lengths in there too.

Go to your local Autozone or Advance Auto Parts and ask for custom V8 MSD Heli-core wires. Top of the line, under 100 bucks, and my ***, the spark, it totally halped my throttle response. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

i have the MSd superconductor wires, i had one burn out cause one fell out of the loom which was my fault. o therefor otherwise i have noproblems with them and they are great wires. i think they are like 65 from summit.
