Re: 8mm spiral core wires
Your small cap has posts like a large cap HEI? Use wires for a '75 Corvette.

Re: 8mm spiral core wires
Agreed, I used either 75 or 76 vette plug wires as well. Those vettes came with HEI and the wires will be the right length.

Re: 8mm spiral core wires
Try the Accel Super Stock Series. Tell the parts store guy you want a big block set with the longest lengths.
I have gone over 50k on a set of these. On my 3rd set now. |

Agree on the Corvette application. I only use Delco or MOROSO Blue Max wires.

Re: 8mm spiral core wires
For a long time I thought the Taylor's were the best value. Now I usually go with the MSD Streetfires. Summit and Jegs also have their own house brand. I prefer plain ol' black plug wires.
