Which brand spark plug wires?
I've used Accel 8.8 spark plug wires and haven't had any problems. I'm looking at changing over to the flat/wide distributor cap and rotor which means I'll need to swap out wires as well. Just looking for feedback on other brands like Mallory, Moroso, Taylor. I've used Taylor wires, but wasn't too impressed. I'm looking to spend around $50 on wires.

I run Taylor 8mms on my Ford and my Subaru, never had an issue yet.
Why do you need to change out wires? Can't you buy new ends and boots that will work on the cap?

Ive got the accel 8.8 and love them. I also changed all of my ignition parts to accel just in case of issues.

I thought about changing the distributor boot ends. By the time I found the leftover spares from previous universal sets and started to cut and crimp, I might as well order a new set. I don't know how long the existing Autolite wires have been in the truck either.

Okay so I am old school, I bought a spool of true wire plug wire and made my own set. I do not understand why one would want to use a resistant wire other than radio interference. There is something about full voltage to the plugs I like.
