Hey guys,
Want to match up the hei, spark plug wires, and MSD 6AL Box.
Whats the best style, gauge wire etc for this application with headers.
Thanks for the recommendation (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Whats your intended use for the car? If its HPDE or racing of any kind routing under the valve cover is great for avoiding the headers, although its a royal pain in the ass to diagnose a burnt wire and replace should you burn one. I run HPDE and TT and run the wires over the valve cover and use DEI wire sleeve and these

I don't think you can go wrong with a thicker wire with headers for the protection (8mm or thicker), but ensure you insulate them and keep them from contacting the headers. MSD is a great brand, and I like the moroso's as well. I have a MSD 6al with MSD wires and stock coil. This has worked great for years as long as I keep them off the headers on an LT1.
