Dutch you should have snap on rotor. The hose idea is good I use this method as well.

Hey Dutch,
I've got the Basanni system on the way(finally).Why the need for the 9mm. wires, also looms and coil that 96bronco58 suggests?

are you guys getting motorsport 9mm plugwires due to better heat resistance? When you put headers on (especaily shorty headers) i would put on sparkplug protectors over the end boots to keep them from cooking. thats what i did, have not had any probelms so far, i got a set from summitracing for $40 or so.

yo Joey,
My orig recommendation to someone else (in an older thread about 2 months ago) was to get the Ford 9 mm set because it was actually cheaper than the OEM MotorCraft set from a dealer(incl. the cost of the new looms and s+h charges). Maybe that discussion was on the ex- MBB site?

anyway...
I have your engine tech info Link on my Bronco site, thanks! Want your excess listed there too?

Suds.. good you'll be extremely pleased with the system performance . I have a one mpg increase for sure. The rest of the goodies I'll let you experience.

Regarding wires. My last wire/plug,etc was at 90,000, now at 140,501. With the Bassani headers I know I need a heat resistant boot.
If anyone has better suggestion that Ford racing 9mm wires, I'm open... I hear a MSD TFI coil may be a smart "stock" replacement. I dont want to fiddle too much with the ignition system.
