Rick at Firecore came through with custom wires for my pump gas, coil-near-plug Hemi. The wires came on Friday the 12th and my first pass with the new motor was on Monday the 15th.

I was happy with a 7.65 @ 174 MPH considering this is a 10.8:1 motor running 91 octane fuel.

Thanks Rick

Just kidding. I'm happy with the plug wires I bought from him, sent him my old originals and he copied them for me, since they're all "custom length" and a mix-match of 90 degree and 180 degree boots.

great product, great service!

Richj, are those MSD coil packs? Very nice. Are they hotter than the more commonly used LS1 coils? Very nice looking dragster.

Rick is ok by me, times 3. I think I have his original 8mm Fire Core wires from over 4 years ago. Got them at Carlisle. In fact. I think he only sold 4 sets that very first year. H included a cold beer. That sealed the deal for me..


I mostly enjoy golfing in the 70's.. The eighties are just too hot, and 60's I usually get chilly !!

Yes, the MSD coils run higher in energy, and they have the multi-spark electronics built in. I measured the spark energy when I was writing my Hemi book and they came in at 170 mJ, with an MSD 6AL at about 100 mJ.

Rick is truly a rare breed. Sells parts that actually work and have quality. Customer service is second to none and I've enjoyed several conversation regarding our projects. Keep up the good work Rick!
