Title: Plug wires that fit around shorty manifolds
Post by: Fritter on September 14, 2013, 01:22:19 am
I have shorty IDA manifolds on my 2332.  Right now I am using stock Bosch plug wires that I had to grind down on the plug ends in order to get them to fit. 

When I touch these with the engine running, sometimes I get a shock.  Also, I sometimes get a shock when touching the carb linkage.

So, I think I need some different plug wires.

Does anyone know of any plug wires that have flexible ends, so I could bend them slightly by the manifolds when I put them on the plug?

Oh, I have a stock ignition with Bosch blue coil and an 019.

Top Gun (a quality Oz brand) make them.
Some Eagle leads (like you can get from Summit).
Taylor wires used to make them.
 
Something to start with at least. Most of them have a longer plug boot, with a flex section in the middle of the boot that you can bend around. I'm not sure how they would fit in an ACVW for sealing the tins?
