What Type of Spark pug wires are theeee best??

I currently have Accel Wires on my 86 iroc 350. YES its a 350 in an 86. and its TPI. I am looking for new wires when i do a my next tune up. I have an Accel dist. cap. rotor and coil. The guy that had the car before me has put accel wires on there. But i dont know which ones are the best. 8mm or what ? can you guys give me any suggestions? Thanks

MSD 8.5mm, buy the custom kit so you can make your own. I've been using the grey ones for 7 years, 100,000 miles and they are still perfect aside the heat cycle effects on the metals which is why I will replace them soon.

I use MSD 8.5's as well, and would recommend if you want to tackle the job, to cut and crimp your own set. MSD sells bulk kits or universal kits that allow you to do this. I plan to do this sometime as well, as my wires will be of perfect fit and not dangling in some areas as they do now.

I did not see headers listed as being on your car. If you dont have headers go buy a decent stock set of wires and delco plugs from napa or autozone. If you have headers I would use accel 8mm universal wires and cut them to fit properly. I have headers and have used the accel 8mm wires for a few years now and have no complaints.
