its easy.. just go buy all new boots and metal parts... get your wire and go to town using some crimpers or something to smash the things on the wires

basicly you just cut the rubber off the wire untile you get to the conductive part.. fold it back along the side of the rubber and crimp

you get them at any auto store.. car quest is where i got mine.. you can also use your old ones if you can get them off

you take a razor blade to the end and go around it but not throuhg it.. be very careful not to cut the center.. cut about 1/2" of the end rubber then fold it back and make sure the metal clip is touching the cunductive part you bent back

actually i never worked with those msd wires before but if they are anything like the stock wires (in metal terminals and stuff) then it is easy to do.

i will make a how to for that but give me a day or to to recover from the damn flew... i am using anti biotics and those things makes me dead tired.

When you finish your MSD Wires, check to see if they are "leaking" for lack of a better word.

At night, particularly when it is moist, open your hood and turn on your car. check both ends of the wire plugs to see if you can see blue electrical sparks coming out. This won't really do harm performance wise, but it can be dangerous if you accidentally grab a wire or coil on your running car. I have done this before on my uncles old Volkswagen and the results weren't too good :( .

If you want safety/reliability/performance, go with Magnecor, they already make wires for our cars, and they are a well known brand.

OK now the spark plug end is over and done with... what about the coil pack socket?? does them MSD wires come with the coil socket on and just cut them for the length you want??
