hey guys i just purchased a set of used hedman headers off anohter member, i was wonder what plugs u guys think wood be good, the only ones i was taking a looking at were these http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku


also will those wires be all i need to make sure everythings safe?

 

o yeah and one other question i had to buy a header intall kit, i ordered the square port gaskets, that will be fine with my l03 correct?

 

noone can recomend me any good wires?

 

Im kinda interested to see the answer too - I believe someone recommended getting a set for a truck, or different vehicle, but I forget what.

As for the Accel wires, I believe you have to assemble those yourself. I think the kit comes with the wire and the boots, and you have to do the work of cutting / stripping to the exact length you want, and then crimp the boots on with special pliers.

Personally, I would look into Taylor or MSD or another brand.

 

Accel(8.8mm)...I have been running them for years , never had a problem with them...Good wire

 

I've heard some bad stuff about accell wires.

I've got MSD cut-to fit with 90* boots on my bird but that's because that's all my store had in stock and I needed to get to work the next day. I'd go Taylor wires. Incidentally, from what I've heard summit brand wires are the same as the standard Taylor wires, just no Taylor boots.

 

how are these wires?

lots of problems with accel that i have heard. i've always ran msd and no problems. when i put headers on, i run part number 31249 from msd. they are meant to be run underneath the header tubes.

 

I have used accel 8.8 for years. and I was using them with those headers

 

I run the MSD 90* boot wires on mine. Can't remember what application, but IIRC they are a truck application that had the 90s...

 

well the only experience that i had with the accel 8.8 was that they were way to long when it came to a kit specific for my vehicle. im running the unassembled wires from msd to help with the issue of running headers and making sure them are out of the way

 

i just picked up a set of taylors, thanks for the advice guys

 

very nice choice, post pics please once you get them on

 

I've used accel performance wires on lots of cars. THe only problem I ever had were wires that were just a little too long. Every time. You have to be creative in your routing, thats for sure. The quality, meaning longevity and function was always superb especially considering the lower price.

 

If you want plug wires with all 90s .My 92 gmc had all 90s.

 

Use wires from a 90 Chevy 1500 truck

Ask for the premium ones and you will get 8mm wires

One wire on the drivers side is about 2" too long but it can be tucked out of the way
There is enough length for rack style wire dividers

Alot cheaper than that cut to fit set and chances are you wont need that big of a set of wires

 

I seem to be a minority here in that I like the cut-to-fit sets so I can taylor how long each wire is and route them how I like.

 

Nothing wrong with that and sometimes its the only option

Alot of people want the Off-the-shelf type of part and other like me prefer the $30 for nice wires vs the normal $50-80 per set of cut-to-fit wires

 

TorqueTilla, you may want to try the Accel shorty spark plugs. They help keep the plug wire boots from being burnt on the headers. Also carried by Summit and many auto parts stores.
