8.5mm Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Set, Red — Universal 6-Cylinder

Six cylinders. Cut to fit. Crimp tool in the box. Routing plug wires is an art form; as MSD puts it - and a six-cylinder build rarely gets a set that fits it properly off the shelf. This one is meant to be built by you: six leads with the plug end already finished; the other end open; and everything needed to terminate them. The lengths give you room to route around a header instead of pulling a lead tight - two at 40 inches; two at 36; two at 32; plus a 36-inch coil wire. Ferro-Spiral core; 40 to 50 ohms per foot; red 8.5mm jacket with silicone boots. Both cap terminal styles are in the box; so a vintage inline six and a later cap both get what they need.

  • Cut to your routing - six leads finished at the plug end; open at the cap end.
  • Length to work with - 40; 36 and 32 inch leads route around a header instead of pulling tight.
  • Both cap styles covered - socket-style and HEI spark plug-style terminals in one box.
  • Crimp tool included - the Mini-Stripper-Crimper comes with the set.
  • 8.5mm Super Conductor - Ferro-Spiral core at 40-50 ohms per foot.

Install Level: Intermediate - measure; cut and crimp each lead

Universal - not pre-cut for a specific vehicle.
Both socket-style and spark plug-style cap terminals supplied.
Mini-Stripper-Crimper tool included.
Wire separators are not included and are worth adding.

Six cylinders. Cut to fit. Crimp tool in the box.

A universal six-cylinder Super Conductor wire set in red 8.5mm — boots and terminals installed on one end, the other left open so you cut each lead to length. Both cap terminal styles and the Mini-Stripper-Crimper are included.

Routing plug wires is an art form, as MSD puts it, and a six-cylinder build rarely gets a set that fits it properly off the shelf. This one is meant to be built by you: six leads with the plug end already finished, the other end open, and everything needed to terminate them.

The lengths give you room to route around a header instead of pulling a lead tight: two at 40 inches, two at 36, two at 32, plus a 36-inch coil wire. Ferro-Spiral core, 40 to 50 ohms per foot, in a red 8.5mm jacket with silicone boots.

The set covers either era of distributor. Terminals for early socket-style caps and late HEI spark plug top caps are both supplied, so a vintage inline six and a later cap both get what they need from one box. Wire separators are not included, and they are worth adding.
