MSD custom kit, only way to avoid burning wires is an OVTC kit.

I have had good luck with Taylors in the past, and currently using 8.5mm MSDs.

DEI heat boots can be a good friend too.

Taylors are what I run now.

i think 10.4 would be just a wee bit of overkill for this application .... :lol:

no such thing as overkill, they are only like $10 more than the 8's and they have a higher temp resistance,oil, etc... lower the resistance better spark, those sbc's need every 10th/h.p. they can get anyway.
hey, they'll look friggin sweet on there too!!!

MSD 8.5

Good wires, never burnt a single one yet... and my OTVC kit is a tad bit bad.

they are nice wires, but the hard shell boots might be an issue. sometimes you have to bend the plug wire a lil bit for clearance with header,

You also have coil packs... can't imagine how much fun it would be routing 10.4 mm wires on a real engine...

I have run Taylor and MSD and I like both.

I agree. I've had some problems with Accel stuff but that just might be bad luck on my part.
