All Plug Wire - Low Ohm's is that Possible?

I am trouble shooting some minor problems with a mid 60’s Dodge 383 motor... I thought I had a bad plug wire so I started testing the ohm’s with my multimeter and found this:
(Wires have been on the running car for 5 years)
Longer TAYLOR spiro pro 8mm silcone wires tested at: 1.22 - 1.44 ohm.
Shorter TAYLOR spiro pro 8mm silcone wires tested at: 0.78 - 0.85 ohm.

Then I tested some new ACCEL Hi-temp super stock radio suppression core 8mm wires and got: 10.00 to 19.00 ohms. Which I think is normal.

I have been told that anything under 6.00 ohm’s is bad..

My question is.. can all of your plug wires go bad? What could cause it? Coil? Heat? Age? Or are the TAYLOR wires made to run lower resistance/ohm’s?

.. I know I can just get a new wire set but I want to make sure I am fixing the problem..

 

I think you got it backwards. Ohms is a measurement of resistance.. The lower your ohms the better your wires.. Spiral core wires are better than suppression core wires.. It is the way they are made..Also the shorter the wire the less resistance, hence lower ohms.

 

You got the meter on the wrong scale and or you're reading the ohms wrong.Typical spiral wound wires are 100-500 ohms a foot depending on the brand name.So 780-850 ohms is more like it.And that shouldn't cause any problems

 

I need to check a fresh set of TAYLOR wires and see how they read..
