I guess I'll have to call them to see if they have the correct coil wire available. Badalson doesnt have a specific a12 coil wire listed either though.

Dave The wires that I bought (date coded crap) from them only lasted me two seasons and they were arching all over the place. Absolute garbage! Have they improved them? I doubt it! KID
KID, from Frank B/Roger Gibson?

Ok, Im gonna make some calls and see what I can do. Thanks for all the help everybody.
BTW Steve, did you see the Badalson referance resto A12 engine in mopar action? The coil wire boot on the distributor cap is red. How much you bet that the wire set he sells comes with a black boot on the dist cap side?

Mike I bought them back in about 2002 from the only people that had them at the Nats($85). I really don't recall if it was Gibson or not. How many people make them? My guess is that there is only one manufacturer? KID

I've sold probably several dozens of sets of the wires and with exception to having had maybe 2 or 3 issues where one or 2 of the wires were the wrong length. but NEVER had one single issue that was quality related
In regards to the red boot and white lettered coil wire, I've brought it up before to no avail. I know someone who could probably do the red boot , but I have serious doubts enough could be sold to warrent it.
But the only time I personally have ever seen either one was on a 66 Hemi charger that had the red coil boot on the dist end only and a 67 GTX 440 car had the white lettered coil wire(original owner car btw). Not saying I've seen every unrestored car out there. I just feel they might be in the minorty

I think you're right. Here's my original. It's marked Electronic Suppression H 1 69 in yellow but it's faint. Black boots. I cannot recall seeing a red boot on any of my 69's?
