MSD Ignition – Wire Set; Super Conductor; Small Block Chevy with L.P. Distributor (Part No.31249)

Wire Set; Super Conductor; Small Block Chevy with L.P. Distributor

from

$126.99
The MSD 8.5mm super conductor wire is the performance wire. Engineered from the inside out, the 8.5 offers everything you have ever wanted in a wire; incredibly low resistance without electronic interference. In a single 12 inch length of super conductor wire there is only 40 – 50 ohms of resistance. That is the lowest resistance of any helically wound wire. To accomplish this, we use a copper alloy conductor due to it’s great voltage carrying capabilities. The low resistance results in less loss in spark energy so more reaches the spark plug. The conductor is wound extremely tight around a special center core. So tight in fact, that there is over 40 feet of conductor wrapped into a single foot of plug wire. This winding procedure, combined with a ferro-magnetic impregnated center core, produces an extremely effective electro magnetic interference (EMI) or choke. This choke, or suppression capability, keeps the EMI inside the wire where it cannot interfere with other electronics on your vehicle. The outer sleeve that surrounds the conductor assembly is just as impressive. A proprietary blend of silicone and synthetic material produce a sleeve that is highly resistant to high heat as well as abrasion and tears. Available in universal kits and bulk lengths.

Product Features:
  • Less than 50 ohms per foot for superior spark
  • Ferro-magnetic impregnated core creates an effective EMI choke
  • 40 ft. Of Conductor Wound Into A Single Foot Of Wire
  • For high EMI suppression
  • Conductor core features Dupont Kevlar material
  • Proprietary compound sleeves for resistance to high heat/abrasion

NGK – Ignition Wire Set (Part No.F102088196NGK)

Ignition Wire Set

from

$46.89
NGK Resistor Spark Plug Wire Sets utilize a construction method known as variable pitch wire winding to create resistance to radio frequency interference. The variable pitch winding (loose/tight/loose) provides suppression throughout a very wide range by scrambling and breaking up the electrical waves radiated by the firing of the spark plugs. A ferrite magnetic layer consisting of a mixture of rubber, plastic and powdered ferrite magnetic materials, offers uniform resistance and unsurpassed conductivity. NGK wires have a lower resistance than conventional carbon core wires (8k ohm/meter versus 16k ohm/meter). This comparison is important to remember when you consider that many manufacturers recommend wires be replaced when the resistance exceeds 20k ohm/meter. This does not leave much margin for wear when the wire may only meet original standards at the very early stages of its life.

Product Features:
  • OE-Equivalent.
  • OEM style connectors for easy Installation.
  • Superior Firing and Fuel Savings
  • Outstanding Durability and Performance
  • Excellent Noise Suppression
  • Numbered for easy cylinder identification.
  • High quality EPDM and Silicone coverings.
