Spark plug wires are simple; or are they? With tons of options to choose from, selecting the right one for your application is critical. OHMS of resistance is a big factor in selecting the best wire and you can test your current wires without a lot of fancy tools.

@MikeWolf-427

Thanks for the video. Just ordered a set of Fast wires for my 427.

@hutchhiperf

Great video per usual. Makes me feel better about my MSD selection.

@axleratio

Great test, thank you ! My first car back in the early 70s (64 Dodge 383) I ran Accel plug wires,dual point distributor and their Super coil . I look back now and that was way too much yellow in the engine compartment. My current small block Chevy I am using a D.U.I HEI style distributor and MSD plug wires. Times have changed over the years !

@hybridmusclegarage4590

Great Video. I needed this info for the K20!

@user-hi2ev7ug4l

Great topic and content and thanks

@juangalvez8594

Great comparison, will consider on my next purchase. Thanks !!

@brocluno01

Funny, I have been running Moroso Spiral Core for decades. Good radio suppression and great conductivity. To bad they didn't make it into the comparo ... 🙃

Ford switched ignition + coil wire from Fuse box is 5 Volts !

@SteveP-vm1uc

I was hoping FireCore would make the test list.... Great video.... The Taylor shocked me..... Accel didn't surprise me at all...

@johnweaver8470

Been using standard wires from Napa with no problems, maybe I could upgrade, keep the videos coming

@jsimmonstx

I have all Fords, and I use the Ford Racing 9mm (spiral-wound) cut-to-fit wires. They're fairly inexpensive (less than $60), and beyond being Ford branded, I've verified their advertised 9 ohm resistance, and they work great with the sniper EFI I have installed on one of my cars.

@russellbroadwell

Thanks for taking the time and spending the money. My turbo SBF is breaking up I suspect ignition. All the wires are old and the boots are showing some heat damage. On the car now are 7 Bosch Ultra - Premium (parts store?) and one Accel. I also have an old ford Motorsport coil wire to compare.

@danmello4176

Great video. I used Accel plug wires back in the late 70's when in high school because they looked cool along with their super coil. But I've been using MSD plug wires for a long time now and they seem to last much longer with headers and heat cycles. I would like to a comparison of the spark plug boots? They seem to fail before anything else. My two cents worth. Thanks for your video's.

@VinoRatRodbuilds

So much 2 consider an understand. Yep I'll just run down to the auto parts store and grab me some plug wires It ought to be good. 🤔 I have to admit that's the way most of us think.

@kellyd887

I decided Accel was not worth the extra cost, junk 30 yrs ago. Thanks for proving that nothing has changed.

@Dr_Reason

Given the rise time of a spark, you need to measure reactance instead of ohms. The reason why I bring this up is some wires have low ohms at dc but have a lot of reactance when a spark is transmitted. I do not like spiral core wires for this reason. Suprisingly though, most anything will work at least for a while. ( Magnecore is somewhat unique in this area as they have a good rise time.)

@pacbrian3809

Fast for the win!

@garyhosier4765

Great review. I’d say Summit and Taylor are the same wire. So if your budget dictates, try Summit. Be interesting to see the difference between a good crimped connector and a backyard crimp without the correct tool. That’s where I would have saved money in the day. No crimping pliers.

@JayMalone26

I've never tested the ohms but in Mercedes ignition systems, they require non-resistor plugs as the resistors are in the wires themselves. Another reason why its so important to use genuine Mercedes replacement parts.
