Another alternative is the 496 wires from Scott Performance Wires. The boots aren't as tight as the boats unlimited wires but they are performing well and look to be quality wires too. The Scott are a little less cost than the boats unlimited wires.

I second this. There are those who have the red ass about Mosetti, but these plug wires are pretty impressive. They are sleeved their entire length for insulation. I would highly recommend using the dielectric grease on the boots, though, as they are VERY snug.

Thanks. Brad.

I used the Scott wires on my last 496HO and had good results.

I have also bought parts from John in the past and his stuff has always been top notch.

Offshore production quality. The Taylor wires I've seen the plug wire boots are not glued to the wire. Custimer BBC truck, the 2nd time I ended up pulling #1 plug wire, it ended up breaking the wire off at the crimp and pulled out of the boot. No dialectric grease/lube was on the plug. Either way...I couldn't find a local solution to the 135° plug boot...everything would have contacted the cast exh manifolds. I ended up repairing it. Not much different from making up a custom set of plug wires.

Moroso would be far better option. I've been looking to see if they have a custom build set.
