[Tigers] MSD wire set

[Dave Munroe]

Nathan;

I recently purchased an MSD distributor, and it came with an HEI style cap 
that required 90 deg caps on the dizzy end.

I had Taylor 8mm wires made for a 289 Mustang on my car with ends for the 
old distributor that wouldn't fit. The wires also were quite a bit too long 
for the Tiger.
I bought the distributor  from Summit, and when I duiscussed this with the 
order guy, he put me onto an MSD wire end kit with nine caps. It was 
relatively inexpensive
at around  $15.00, and like all MSD stuff, these were very high quality 
caps. So having new caps gave me the opportunity to "custom cut" my wires to 
the exact length.

So buy a set of wires that has the spark plug caps you want, and get one of 
these 90 deg MSD dizzy end kits for $15. and cut your wires to make them fit 
perfectly.

It worked for me!

Dave
