Re: Boys and Girls, use motorcraft wires... Reply #17 – March 22, 2005, 08:48:21 AM I used Bosch platinums with the FRPP 9MM wires on my '87 Sport and it ran like shiznit.

Re: Boys and Girls, use motorcraft wires... Reply #26 – March 22, 2005, 02:09:01 PM I run motorsport 9mm wires, with autolite double platinum 23's on my combo. Car runs like a raped ape on this setup. MSD box also helps with the spark control. Quote Selected
