    Can anyone recommend the best plug wires to be running in my 55 Ford Country Sedan with a 272 and 6v. system?
    Are the MSD 8.5 super conductors good?
    I'm also thinking about adding a 6v. electronic ignition this winter.
    Thanks, Ray

    Always had good luck with Taylor wires. Come in a variety of colors

    If you are trying to use the factory wire guides, the MSD wire is a little too big for the rubber isolators. Taylors will fit - with perseverance and a little "slick'em".

    Whatever wires you decide on, new rubbers should be bought at the same time. Running the wires down like was stock will make new wires last for many years.
