Plug Wires That Fit!!!!

I finally found a set of plug wires that fit well and look good for my 1976 Highboy

. Bought these from CJ Pony Parts. They are Scott Drake brand and fit well. They also say Ford on them and have numbers on them. I don't really care about the numbers but I think they look nice.

The Motorcraft ones used to fit pretty well. Not an exact fit but livable and never a problem.

They look great. Scott Drake does make some quality reproduction parts as well. And CJ Pony is a very easy company to deal with.

They look great and so does your engine and engine compartment.
I bought a tailored set of Motorcraft plug wires.

They do look spiffy, are they resistor wires or solid core?

I'm guessing 7mm?

Looks good. I'm trying to find a good set for my 460. It had Ford Motorsport wires I purchased back in the '80's that fit perfect. I just bought a set of the new version of Ford Racing, which look similar, but fit horribly. The short wires are 4-inches too short and the long ones are 6-inches too long. Any suggestions on where to look?

These are 8mm wires and they also make this set in black. I'm very pleased with these.

Ooooops, My bad, I was intending to ask about the blue in the opening post. Normally I'd have quoted it, but I see that I failed to do so. The Motorcradfts are good wires usually, I might even get a set. Thank You though.
