Does anyone out there know if the factory plug wires on a 440 in 74 were black or orange?
Also, does anyone know where to get factory date coded wires for a 74? Seems like all the aftermarket vendors stop at 71/72. I haven't located a source that offers 74 date coded wires.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Ron

I believe they are Orange and they pop up on E-Bay from time to time.

Correct, Orange only, And No date coded repos were / or are being done.
You only option is find nos originals.

orange were or may even still be avail thru Mopar but obviously the date would be incorrect. But be advised they are truck wires and are a mile long compared to original pass car wire sets
