Auto Spark Plug Wire Rec's: ACCEL 8.8mm or MSD 8.5mm

Junglepilot · #1 09-06-2011, 08:13 PM

I have decided to remake my spark plug wire harnesses because some of the leads that came on my Bendix mags are a tad shorter than I'd like. Mine are currently ACCEL 7mm (yellow) for my 18mm "auto style" end plugs.

That said I am looking at either the ACCEL (8.8mm) or MSD (8.5mm) and both claim excellent EMI suppression and to some extent backed up by users I know. I know G3i uses the MSD and they love them.

Does anyone else have experience with either and/or have preferences?

ACCEL is cheaper (significantly).

on my 442 I am running Taylor 409 Pro race wire 11mm.

Didn't catch that designator: What is 442? As in car?

One of the issues with adding the thicker cables is having to drill out the cap on the Bendix mag bigger than required for traditional braided AC cables. I dunno about going to 11MM.

So did you add these to an AC mag? 442?

Thanks.
