ACCEL now offers the cure for burnt spark plug boots with Extreme 9000 Ceramic wire kits. The 8mm Ferro-Spiral core wire now has ceramic boots on the spark plug end of the wires. Ceramic boots withstand up to 2,000 degrees. Great for running headers with close tolerances, an engine bay with little room, or an RV with boots that melt because of heat. Ultra high temperature double silicone construction wire rated at 600 degrees fahrenheit peak. 500 ohms/ft Ferro-Spiral core developed for performance use. Excellent energy delivery to the spark plugs, while providing the highest level of RFI/EMI suppression. Stainless steel spark plug terminals for maximum spark energy to the plugs. Pre-made to factory lengths for a perfect fit.

“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.

For a long time, racers have known that one of the best things to do to an engine to improve performance is to stabilize the ignition timing. The MSD Flying Magnet Crank Trigger system does exactly that by using four magnets embedded in an aluminum wheel. Although similar in appearance to other crank triggers, the MSD Flying Magnet design works on a different principle. Most crank triggers have a wheel, with steel studs sticking out, bolted to the harmonic balancer. As the crankshaft turns, the studs pass by a stationary magnetic pick-up, triggering the ignition. This pick-up can be triggered by other bolts, debris, or even vibrations which will cause a loss of power or engine damage.
