Spark Plug Wires W/ 2055s

so what set of plug wires are going to fit best with hooker 2055s? all 90* ends it looks like. stck has 2 straight ends right? anyway, i cant tell the parts store that i need normal wires becasue normal wires wont work in this case. im guessing this is an easy answer for a lot of people here.

oh and i dont care much about high quality expensive wires, as long as they are good enough to spark then its good with me.


thanks

I would just buy a set of 90° angled boot wires and call it a day. Moroso, Tailor, MSD, and Accel all sell such sets for a SBC.

I bought the Tailor wires and i love them. They could withstand the heat a little better than the others. I also got them all 90* just in case.

incase anyone looks this up for the same question, i ended up buying Accel wires that i cut to length and crimped the ends. it was about $30 and they ended up good, except that i had to pull off and use my old distridutor side 90* boots becuase the ones in the kit were not the HEI style. and for some reason the wires came with straights on all of them, which i cut off and put 90* ones on.

I went to Auto Zone and got a set of wires for an older Chevrolet pick-up with a small block. All the wires had 90 degree boots so it worked out very nice. I ended up just cutting them to my prefered length and recrimping the ends.

Not bad for $21 and a little work.
