The MSD 8.5 Mm super conductor wire is the performance wire. Engineered from the inside out, the 8.5 Offers everything you have ever wanted in a wire; incredibly low resistance without electronic interference. In a single 12 inch Length of super conductor wire there is only 40 to 50 ohms of resistance. That is the lowest resistance of any helically wound wire. To accomplish this, we use a copper alloy conductor due to it’s great voltage carrying capabilities. The low resistance results in less loss of spark energy so more reaches the spark plug. The conductor is wound extremely tight around a special center core. So tight, that there is over 40 feet Of conductor wrapped into a single foot of plug wire. This winding procedure, combined with a Ferro-magnetic impregnated center core, produces an extremely effective electro magnetic interference (EMI) choke.
Product Features
- Copper alloy conductor has a resistance value of less than 50 ohms per foot for superior spark
- Ferro-magnetic impregnated core creates an effective EMI choke
- Forty feet of conductor is wound into a single foot of wire for high EMI suppression; Conductor core features Dupont Kevlar material for increased tensile strength
- Durable outer sleeve is a proprietary compound for resistance to high heat or abrasion
- Stainless steel terminals feature dual crimp tabs to grip wire conductor and outer jacket separately.Conductor Style: Spiral core
Great wires for clearing aftermarket shorty headers. This was my solution when I switched to shorty headers on my 2007 GMC Sierra 5.3 LH6. When I installed a set of Flowtech shorty headers on my truck the stock style wires would not work, the 90 degree boot stuck out too far and was hitting the header on cylinder number 6 and 7. As other reviewers have stated you can bend the strait boots on these wires up to 45 degrees to clear any obstacles.Great wires from a proven company, and they absolutely will fit on truck based LS engines 3rd…
Doesn’t fit 2006 Chevy 2500HD 6.0L or 2005 Tahoe 5.3L. Don’t order MSD 32819 for a 2005 Tahoe 5.3L or 2006 2500HD 6.0L as recommended by Amazon, they are way to short. I also called MSD’s tech department myself before ordering set 32818 based on other reviews on Amazon they told me this set would work as noted on Amazon, NOT true.After doing a lot of research I recorded MSD wire set 32829, this set is the same length as the OEM set & works great.MSD part 32829, Great fit & function on my 2006 2500HD 6.0L & 2005…
Very high quality wires that are great to work with. As far as a performance gain, I can’t see any noticeable gain being had over OEM wires in most applications. I went with these wires because I knew they were high quality. These wires are much sturdier than the stock wires they replaced on my GTO…which actually fell apart in my hands while I removed them. After putting on these wires myself I had a shop put long tube headers. The mechanic commented on how easy to work with and sturdy the wires were. Because of the increased heat on the…
