What Ignition Wires To Buy?

ThePope · Mar 3, 2009

Can anyone recommend me a good set of ignition wires for the 98 GT? I have Ford Racing ones on there now. There about a little over a year old and they are starting to ark already. Anyone know of a good company that makes good ones?

Thanks everyone.

Livewire might be a good one to look at...

can't go wrong with MSD

I'm looking around on summit website and I see wires for a 2 valve and a 4 valve? Either or should work correct?

I switched to taylors and they are a great set. much better than the fms stuff.

I have heard positive feedback on the Taylor, Livewire and FMS. The MSD wires I have seen mixed only because about 2 yrs ago they supposedly switch their manufacturing line and have had a crap shoot with some sets of good and bad wires. Thats just what I heard, so you can use the information however you please.

I just spent cash on the RED Ford Racing wires... Are these the ones you have? If they are arcing already I will be pretty pissed if mine start doing that soon...

Yeah, they are ford racing wires except mine are blue.

FRPP.

I have been running the Livewires and the matching coil packs for a few years with no troubles.

uh oh, i have FRPP blues on my car as well, but no problems so far. I've heard good things about Taylor wires though.

Taylor Thundervolt 50s here with no issues.... Also have screaming demon coil packs. Had the yellow livewires that matched the coils. They worked great, but I couldn't keep the yellow sleeving clean.

My car still has the stock ones...lol. thin black wires w/ 1998 printed on them.
I've got FRPP blue wires sitting on the shelf waiting for me to swap them out this weekend.

I used to run the Accel 9000(?) their black wires w/ the heat sheilding paint on the boots on all the push rod motors i had, never had any issues w/ them. They were about the same price as MSD wires

MustangChris · Mar 5, 2009

my stock ones were blue with 1997 printed on them. lol.... strange

maybe mine werent stock (considering mine is a 96... lol)

I've had two sets of FRPP 9mm wires and each set only lasted me a year. But then I was living in Las Vegas at the time and the engine heat there gets very high. I now have MSD Superconductor 8.5mm. I like them and they look good.
