I found those to be too long on some of the wires,a better option is the Russ Merrit wires or buy a universal set and make up your own.I think 3 of the wires were too long compared to Russ's style.just a thought.

Thanks for posting this info.

I have the new MSD wires here in the box and that will make it much easier when i install them.

Just as soon as it warms up from the deep freeze temps we have right now.
