Default Taylor Plug Wires

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone here is using Taylor wires? I was looking on ThunderRacing.com and saw the Taylor "409" Pro-Race Wires. Says they are a 10.4 MM wire. Just wondering if they are a good wire, any advantages or disadvantages to using these. I'm trying to stay away from MSD's, didn't have real good luck with them last time. Also, was wondering how these will work with Headers, don't have them yet, but eventually will have a set of pacesetters on the truck.

I had a set of Taylor wires, but they weren't the pro-race series. I think I ended up breaking 4 of them (2 within the first month). The spark plus clip inside the boot came off on the plug. Very frusterating. I changed to MSD.

Interesting. Good to know though. I may just stick with the stockers for a while. I actually had the best luck with my JBA PowerCables on my last truck.

I have always used Taylor wires with Delco plugs! That by far is the best domestic vehicle setup for me!

i got the taylor 8mm ones from thunder and im happy with them. They clicked into place which ive had trouble with MSD's clicking into place on my cars. I thought about the cranes, but they only came in grey/black. I wanted something redish or blue so the taylors were perfect for 42bucks.

You arent gonna feel a difference between stock wires and 80buck ones... the only worthwhile thing they did for me was look better lol.
