Default what is the power loss if any?

I have about 75-80K on my 99OEMGSR plug wires. I run a new cap and rotor and the contents of my disty are sound. Is it worth it to change them?

test resistance on them.
I have had mine for about 60/70 k and they spec like brand new

***edit test is as follows:

cyl 4 wire 6.85 K(ohm) 14" (6" 2.58K(ohm) drop 2.32)
cyl 3 wire 9.43 K(ohm) 20" (3" 1.25K(ohm) drop 2.4)
cyl 2 wire 10.68 K(ohm) 23" (5" 2K(ohm) drop 2.5)
cyl 1 wire 12.67 K(ohm) 28"

with rough comparisons between them, it seems like they test
consistent based on thier relative lengths to one another.
can anyone extrapolate from this if they are within tolerance?

thanks,

mike

those specs look good, helms calls for 25k ohm max. at 68 deg.
