Default Plug wire questions?

Going to get some plug wires for my 06 RCSB with 4.8. Narrowed it down to either MSD 32823 or the Taylor 982005. Both are good wires, but has anyone here used either of these wires? I have pacesetters, and the oem wires rub on 2 of the drivers side primaries. I like the MSD's flex boots, but the Taylors are larger diameter. It probably doesnt matter, the specs are nearly idendtical, plus the wires are short. Thanks in advance.

i had the taylors on my old truck and after a few times of taking them off the connector on the inside broke loose. dont know if anybody else had the problem but i will probably stick with ac delcos or maybe MSD.

Thanks, I had taylors on a mustang, and had the same problem. Wondered if they ever made the boots stronger.

MSD's!! I got them from a sponsor on LS1tech he custom makes the wires, $60 shipped to your door. I have the pacesetter and they work perfect, you just bend the boot up a little.

I like the AC-Delco wires myself. If you need longer ones these are a bit longer although I don't care for the angled plug boots.
