Re: Plugs and wires.

I just talked to a guy at autozone and told him what wires I was looking for. He said his brother works at a place that does performance work for nothing but 3800 motors. He told me to get my wires at NAPA and they are Beldin or Blendin or something...input on these wires. I will be going with the AC Delco one I was just curious why he told me that sinse I have heard no mention of these on here.


Thanx
Chad

Well Beldon does make a lot of plug wire and there is also several grades of them like cheap and a little better and better and good grade just like all after market stuff.
After market parts places by the brand and then have it made up to there own specs so you can not even trust the brand any more.
But remember AC Delco Oem type wires will only hurt one time and the after market cheap stuff will bite you in the REAR MANY TIMES.
And remember the AZ parts people are not trained techs just parts people.
As far as Napa goes they are getting a lot of come back stuff or have went way down hill on quality. Just a word to the wise on that one.

Re: Plugs and wires.

I agree with MT on that one. The thing I like about the AC Delco wires like the Premium Silicone 7mm is they have the lowest resistance per foot of any of the top spark plug wires on the market. Around 500 ohms per foot or less. Hard to beat. Only the MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor come in better at 50 ohms per foot but they cost.
