I like mine, but they don't fit as tight as NGK. Really doesn't matter though. If you don't have an upgraded ignition, then go NGK. They do make 8mm as compared to Magnecor's 8.5mm KV85. I just need them to handle the heat from my MSD ignition...

The butt dyno might think that some power was made with these wires, but it's all in your head. Nothing beats OEM wires or NGK wires.

Hot Rod magazine had a review and comparison of major Spark Plug wire brands. It was a good article on this topic.

One of the recent months. December maybe?

Hot Rod is a great Mag, better tech articles than SCC.

Had 'em, didn't like 'em. They didn't fit correctly on my ITR and several other owners have complained of the same thing. The OEM wires are actually better IMO.
