[Shotimes] AC DELCO WIRES RECOMMENDED?

[Al Fitz]

Take a good look at your Motorcraft plug wires and you'll notice that they
have a date stamped on them. Why? Because they are made of carbon and even
sitting on the shelf, they are constantly degrading.

Within just a few years they lose half of their conductivity. Taylor wires
are made of copper, not carbon and even though metal also degrades, it would
take more years to degrade than your SHO would possible last. In addition,
the resistance on carbon based wires is MUCH higher than on metal wires.

The 'shocking intensity' difference between static electricity and lightning
is amps. The more amps you have the more powerful the spark. The less
resistance you have in a plug wire, the more spark you'll have in the
air-fuel mixture.

As with anything else, other will disagree, but that is what we believe.
