    Arrow Spark Plug Wires

    So refering to plug wires do you want more ohms of resistance or less? What do the stock ones have for resistance. The Taylor Thunder volt 8.2 mm have like 50-60 ohms a foot.

    the less resistance the better eh
    the absolute max is 8k ohms per foot so 50 odd ohms is sweet

    Less in general. But look at the construction of the wire as well and what material they are using.

    I use the NGK or the Accel super stock since the boot is vulcanized on for spark plug changes. I never had any luck with the make your own ones esp. with headers! the boots always come off.
