1978 Mercury Cougar Ignition Wires

“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) “”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. The MSD’s 8.5mm spark plug terminals feature Dual Crimp terminals. As the name implies, the terminals feature two crimps, one for the sleeve of the wire and another separate crimp to grasp the conductor.

As you’d expect from the trusted Mallory name, the 8mm red silicon jacket withstands temperatures up to 550 DegF and looks great under the hood.

Our Universal spark plug wire sets come with the spark plug terminal and boot installed with the other end open. Distributor cap boots and terminals are included so you can cut the wire to the desired length, then install the terminal with the supplied Mini-Stripper-Crimper. It’s a little more work, but in the end it will be worth it.

ACCEL’s SuperStock 4000 series spark plug wire sets are designed to upgrade an OE ignition system for high-spark delivery levels for street driven applications. The 450 degree F rated silicone jacket is extruded over a tightly woven, rugged fiberglass braid. The braid is applied over high dielectric strength EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) inner insulation for ignition wire performance that exceeds SAE specifications.

The spiral wound alloy core provides low resistance ensuring maximum energy transfer to the spark plugs while high noise suppression keeps noise interference out of on-board electronics.

Routing spark plug wires is an art form. It takes patience and time to route your wires away from the headers, through separators and to the distributor cap. Some wire sets fit perfect, but a lot of people want to build their own so they can route them exactly how they see fit.

The Street Fire Spark Plug Wires feature a low resistance conductor that’s wrapped in a sleek and durable black sleeve.

CARQUEST Premium Spark Plug Wire Sets are engineered to restore ignition wire reliability and performance. They are designed to meet or exceed OE design requirements, performance, fit, form and function of the OE wire. Stainless steel magnetic winding delivers maximum voltage to the spark plug for more powerful, and longer spark resulting in optimum engine performance while reducing the chance for misfire, and eliminating radio static.

NGK ultra-low resistance mag core wire sets provide outstanding performance and durability. High-temp premium silicone outer jacket and inner EPDM/silicone insulation contain high voltage currents for excellent dielectric strength. Stainless steel winding over premium ferrite magnetic core delivers ultra-low resistance, a more powerful spark and excellent EMI/RFI noise suppression. OE or better specified spark plug and distributor boots ensure the highest quality fit, performance and durability in every application. Spark plug boots are glued to NGK cable with a silicone sealer for a watertight seal. Stainless steel terminals utilizing up to 3 serrated crimps bite into cable jacket and inner insulation for the highest terminal retention strength (wherever possible). Locking C-shaped spring clip with corrosion-resistant plating ensures a secure and positive spark plug terminal connection.
