Default 65 Plug Wires

Hey Fellas:
I searched on here for an answer to this before I posted but I thought I’d ask anyway.

Currently I’m using the AC Premium Silicone 7mm wires that have been on the car for over 20 yrs!!
Yeah I know 😜
Just want to change them out.

I was just gonna order another set from someplace yet determined but I thought I’d ask you guys….
Where do you recommend I get a set of the pre cut ones and would changing to 8mm be any better?

I’m running the stock coil and distributor with the first gen Petronix module with a ballast resistor, NGK X44 plugs, if that makes any difference.

The car turns over and runs great with no problems since SunTuned serviced and recurved it about 25 yrs ago.


Thanks
Mike

20yrs - yeah maybe they need changed.
You should be able to find precut date coded (by year quarters) with correct boots AC 7mm wires. Proper fit. Check Ames.

Without the correct crimper you don't want to cut your own

Thanks
Yeah, it’s one of those things that I just didn’t give much thought too.
Like I said, there’s no indication of a problem at all but thought it’s about time.

Don’t really need the date coded ones, but if they’re the only way I can get them pre cut then that’s what I’ll get.
I was gonna cal Ames but just thought someone would have other options.

Thanks
Mike
