Does anybody know if they make 8mm plug wires for a 1969 383HP with manifolds.oem wires are 6 90 degree ends and 2 straight ends.I got a set of MSD wires and the ends were all straight so I returned them without seeing if they would work.Probably should have kept them because if they make an oem set I have yet to find them,any help would be apprieciated.

Not sure what is available but you could buy a 90 deg set if need be & recrimp on 2 straight ends. Unless corroded the brass terminals are bullet proof & can handle a recrimping & as you know it's the wires themselves that go bad

good option and i believe Firecore will custom make a set to your spec's if you have the coin.

..buy the wires of your choice and get a set of 90 degree terminals from summit.
they are very easy to crimp on and the crimping tool is only a few dollars...changed all mine to 90 at the cap for a neater/better fit.

We already make that specific set. $90 and be done with it. They are the same 8mm wires used on most of the F.A.S.T. and Supercar Racecars. Our set is actually the same routing and everything as stock, but a better fit. They also fit in all of the stock looms.

Yes we can. What year, 72? Orange wires are a little bit pricier. The OEM routed orange Max Wedge sets we sell are $135, and are on the quickest F.A.S.T. Max Wedges running. Thank you

Have any pictures of the big block plug wires for use with the TTI headers. I'll be getting some firecore wires after I get the hood/scoop finished, but would like to see what looms/routing are used with the wires.
