    Hot rod company has the wire but you need to make them yourself. That's what I did on my 216. Turned out good. They've got a bunch of colors to choose from. Don't forget to buy the ends and boots.

    Thanks for the response, however i need a pre.made set for a 283 chevy. With all thats going on i dont have time to make it up from bulk. I know there was a guy on the Hamb at one time that was doing sets,or maybe there is a Store out there somewhere that sells them

    It should only take 45min to make up a set and they would look better than a one size fits all.

    I'd have to agree with Jimpowie on that one. It doesn't take but a few minutes to put the wires together and being able to cut them to the exact length. I've never found an assembled set of spark plug wires that fit the way I wanted them to for any engine out side of the four banger in my ot gas saver.

    So cal has them in a kit. The plug end is already made so all you do is put on the cap end. Ive got some on mine
     
  11. Looking @ plug wires myself. Picked up a copy of Rodding & Restyling from '62 with "Satan's Chariot" on the cover, running clear red wires with blue boots, loved the look, checked "The Hot Rod Co's" web page on Fri., had both on their site, checked back today, and can't find plug wires at all. Page states item no longer available. Seems I had a similar problem with their site before. Anyone know for sure if their still selling plug wires or not?
