plug wires on 3800/ heat sheilds

[geocor]

looked backed several months & found a lot of posts on MSD super cond. wires. i can get 'em @ $60. good price!ok here 's the question could 'nt find answer for : do the stock metal heat sheilds for the boots fit over the MSD boots? WOULD GREATLTY appreciate an answer to someone who actually put those wires in!

Yeah, you just have to bend em out a little

Absolutely, I just installed plugs and those little heat shields can be bent by hand to conform to your boots pretty easily.

THANX FOR THE INFO RUC & CAMARORS9738 ! I THINK @ ABOUT 37K ON MY CAMARO ITS PROBABALY TIME TO PUT ON THE MSD'S. I KNOW ITS NOT A LOT OF MILES BUT THE STOCK WIRES ARE NOWHERE NEAR THE QUALITY & LOW RESISTANCE OF MSD SUPER COND.HAVE A 2003 CORVETTE WITH ONLY 1300 MI & PUT THEM ON & THE DIFFERENCE IS NOTICABLE. BTW IF ANYONE WITH MSD'S EXPRIENCE ARCING TO GROUND ON PLUGS WITH METAL HEAT SHIELDS(BECAUSE OF THE TREMEDOUSLY HIGHER ENERGY CAPACITY),I HEARD YOU CAN INSTALL A NON-METALIC HEAT SLEVE FROM NAPA, FOR ABOUT 2 FOR 18$.

Yeah, I have those fiberglass sleeves from NAPA made to withstand up to 1200*. The Taylor wires I have are made for the 93-97's and have a 90* boot, so I figured the sleeves would be a wise investment. They're pretty expensive at around $10 each, but IMO they're well worth it.
