Who makes the correct lenght spark plug wires you see on some of the street rods ?or do you buy the kit to make them your self , i bought some premium ones at the local parts house and they look ugly they are too long or just long enough, i'm stuck with them for now till the truck is done .

Cris......depends on the exhaust manifolds. For years I have used Taylor #73051. Fit big block and small block. Stock cast iron manifolds or tubular headers. Under or over manifolds. 90* at plug, Spiro-Pro, high temp 600*, 8 mm. Will fit HEI, Mallory, stock points, MSA.....any distributor. Cut to fit at distributor with several end styles.

Yogi's has them on this site.

Keep kroozen, Jim

I just went thru this exercise yesterday! The Accel 8mm super stock set I ordered had all the wrong lengths for my application. I boxed them up & am sending back to Jegs in exchange for Taylor #73651-blue. #73051 is black wires. No. 1 wire was 19" too long! I was adding Billet Spec. wire looms....cutting them wires to length is the only way to go for a cleaner look. I've got a 305 SBC w/HEI & block hugger headers.

MSD makes a great custom set that you cut to fit and crimp with their special tool. I have never had a complaint with them.
