I've got a 440 with headers using an old MSD-6A and MSD Blaster coil. My wires are MSD Heli-Core 8mm and I've added 2-3 Direct Connection "90-deg. angle" plug ends.... those work GREAT by the way where you have header clearance issues.
My problem is that the wires pop off the plugs on a regular basis. I hear a missfire and have to pull over all the time to reconnect whatever plug wire came loose. It seems like the plug boots were designed for the narrower ford/chevy plugs (5/8" socket to install with narrower plug bodies) and my best guess is that the "fat" (13/16") Mopar plugs are just too big for the boots to stay secure on.
I don't mind cutting my own wires (not a bad idea with headers anyway). Any suggestions for 8mm, carbon core, custom cut wires? I don't want to spend a fortune if I don't have to either.
THANK YOU!
