i am about to buy spark plug wires. and my question is can i re-use the plastic ends that are on the end of the spark plugs? i found some wires at andysautosport and they were like 97 and change after taxes and s&h. they were 8.5. i found some accels at autozone they are 8mm for 40. the ends of those are slanted and long and thats why i ask that question. thanks.

Can be done, but if the connection isnt perfect your gonna lose power...

i have the 8mm accell wires. i had to reuse the coil side boot, and had to bend the connector on the coil side so that it made better contact. they work great, and for $45 i got 2 sets of 8mm wires.
