[DeTomaso] Spark plug wire lengths

[Mad Dog Antenucci]

What distributor wires? ;-)

You need to buy a 30' foot coil of plug wire (I bought Taylor) with MSD plug ends and make up your own wires.
Buy MSD 90 degree plug ends for coils and adjustable (straight to 45 degree) for spark plugs.
And you can get all from Summit Racing and other parts suppliers

Mike Trusty gets the credit for suggesting running the spark plug wires UNDER the Pantera.........makes the plug wires disappear!

I'm going to ask a question that may not be possible to answer.



Do you need special spark plug wires to be able to use a wire loom? The
wires on my car are too short to allow them to fit into the loom without
stressing the wires. They are MSD of some sort. 



I have a brand new set of Ford Motorsport WR-3926-R (or D7PZ-12259-CR if you
prefer) spark plug wires. They aren't the pretty red that the MSD wires are,
but anyone have any idea if they can be installed on a 351C with enough
slack to fit through the looms easily? The plug cables are here and my
engine is 8 hours away, which is why I can't check it myself. 



Thanks!
