Why?

Plug wires and plug wires seems like a waste of cash..

Although just to say you have a MSD ignition... (thoughts..)

Well...

Just like bushings on a 15 year-old car (I've now learned...) deteriorate, regardless of mileage (due to age) plug wires do too, I'm sure (especially with all of that heat up there...)

and then, are you saying that there will be no gains from going with a new MSD, or Crane ignition over the 15 year-old one in my car now? Replacing some of the wires etc etc... Think ignition signal....

i have seen someone install a MSD system on our 75 TS, and although on high rev it doesn't improve much, but in low rev, the torque and the respone is much much better. And i believe new or better plug wire helps too, don't you think better wire can produce better ignition? and better ignition helps?? if not, i think twinspark won't help our engine performance. At least, changing those will helps on our "old" car.

**SHAMELESS PLUG**

I have a set of practically brand new IAP performance V6 plug wires for sale if anyone is interested. They are blue in color and have no defects. Will take a picture of them tomorrow. Cost over $100 when new... willing to take much LESS than that

**END OF SHAMELESS PLUG**

RE: "Shameless Plug"-wires...."

Hey Chip,
I'll probably take them off of your hands if they're worth while... Did you see gains? What do you use now?
I'll send you an email...
