Re: Headers and sparkplug wires

Original style that run down the back of the block along the oil pan and up to the plugs.

You can buy specific wires for your year truck. If you get them for a 70-74 Corvette they will be the same. If you have an HEI in your truck get 75-82 Corvette wires.

Whatever you buy I recommend the spiral wrapped which will have good RF suppression but are low resistance for max ignition performance.

I've run Taylors, Summits house brand, and most recently the MSD Streetfires which seem to be the best deal right now.
