Quote: I stuck my new plug wires on the ohm meter. Going through the cap and wire I can see a big difference between the Taylor's and Fire cores. I went with the HEI style cap lugs, (male) over the mopar style (female) The Taylor's were 1.4 ohms
Fire cores were .13 ohms.
Comparing apples and oranges. Doesn't have anything to do with which wire is best. You can use an ohm test with wires of the same Mfg. Obviously the longer wires will test a little higher than the shorter ones, but what you are looking for is one wire that is way out of wack. What hurts wires is heat, improper removal, Lots of on and off the plugs ( especially when they are still hot ). I only used heat jacketed wires. I use lots of dielectric grease inside the plug boots, use a boot puller when I can, give the boots a little twist to break them loose from the plug before I tug on them, never pull on the wire to remove them and try not to remove/install them hot when I can. I like HEI style caps, keep the wires separated as much as possible, and don't run any other wiring near them. I do use the chasis for a ground on my non-electronic race car.
