The Pertronix website says not to use solid core wires but they don't have a recommendation about plugs. I emailed them but got no response. Should I use the same plugs as with the standard ignition or is there a better option? What about gap? Thanks for any advice.

Jeff From the Petronix website: What applications are covered with the PerTronix Flame-Throwerâ„¢ spark plug wires?
Flame-Thrower spark plug wires are the perfect companions to our other performance products. Many applications are covered, but they are broken into two basic types. For those interested in stock appearance, our 7.0 mm "STOCK-LOOK"â„¢ all black (no script) wires are available. Not concerned about looking stock? Our 8.0 mm "MAGx2"â„¢ colored wires with Flame-Throwerâ„¢ white letter script, do the trick.http://www.pertronix.com/prod/ig/flame/wires/default.aspx(other, similar type plug wires would also work) | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,440 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,440 | I think some folks open the plug gap up a bit.
