Good idea, but as pointed out above, the standard plug wires won't fit
on
the GM coils :-(. Now with that said, I must confess that I haven't
even
tried a standard plug wire. When I bought the coils and asked for
wires, I
was informed that they wouldn't have anything to fit them, but they
were
able to have some made up and shipped up next day at no extra cost.
I swear my mail server is trashing my incoming. I seem to have missed several posts in this thread.
Spark plug wires are just that...wires. You can actually replace them with a piece of house wire and the engine will run. (The guys also had a piece of rope as an alternator belt. '70 F100. Drove it from Lexington, NC to Greensboro, NC on at least one occasion. Note that the trick may only work for extreme rednecks like we have here in NC.)
If you've got a set of old Jeep wires laying around, pull the center conductor out, cram it into the connector at the coil, then use a clothes pin to hole the other end of the conductor to the plug. Do this only as a test. Do not fly in that condition 8*)
