Description
Comparison points and tradeoffs
When comparing MSD 32819 Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Set, Red with other Wire Sets options, use this source-backed detail as the primary discriminator: MSD Ignition warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use, if properly installed, for a period of one year from the date of purchase.
Use this second fact to evaluate the tradeoff: Forty feet of conductor is wound into a single foot of wire for high EMI suppression; Conductor core features Dupont Kevlar material for increased tensile strength. A third point to compare across alternatives is: The MSD super conductor wire set has dual crimped stainless steel terminals.
Alternative-selection boundary
Choose an alternative when its stated identifiers, application, package, or specifications better match the requirement; no unverified competitor claim is introduced here.

These wire are extremely high quality. When tested with an ohm meter prior to installation, they registered @28 ohms. The stock wires were Delco, and registered over @800 ohms. The Delco wires were 7 years old, and were causing our LS-2 equipped 2007 Corvette(15,450 miles) to misfire at idle, and also while cruising. This was to be expected with OEM wires. The MSD wires, right out of the box are too tight a fit. I called MSD customer support, and told them these wires needed to be about 1 inch longer. However, the tech told me the MSD wire spark plug boot was designed to be bent up to a 45 degree angle. I was amazed that this feature was built into the spark plug boot. I did what they instructed, and this wire set fit perfectly, and still checked out at @28 ohms. There were no printed instructions or directions on the box telling me of this ability to bend the plug boot for a perfect fit. The tech promised this would be corrected. The low resistance is created, because the OEM style carbon core is wrapped with copper wire. They claim @ 30 to 40 feet of copper wire per foot of ignition wire is would around the core. One would expect the copper wire to cause interference with the radio and electronics, but just the opposite is the case. This style of wire is also known as Magnetic Suppression Wire. There is a very small electro- magnetic field around these wires, and with the copper windings- very little resistance. The Corvette started immediately, the idle was smooth once again, and the acceleration was noticeably “crisp” and strong. These wires should last a lot longer than 7 years or 15,000 miles- truly a value for the money and they are American made!

Love the bendable plug boots. I put on some headers and these allowed me to bend the boots and wires away from the heat. Been running them for a month and no heat cracks or burns.

when i got these some of them weren’t in spec . i checked the resistance on all of them and half of them were not in spec i return the product to amazon and they gladly shipped me another set who all of them were in the 40-50 ohms that msd calls for.i guess i had a bad batch?all in all ;very good shopping experience, it fits my 2014 6.2 ls3. very good. it fits also the ls1 too.

after reading several reviews ablut how people were finding these hard to install because they were short and need manipulated alot i chanced it and bought them anyway. 3 hours into a 30 minite install my hands look like i have cerebal palsy and i couldnt be more dissapointed in a big name brand. MSD are you that hard up that half an inch would have broke the bank? after 3 hours of fighting i still havent finished and am seriously contemplating buying an oem set from advanced.

Overall solid set of wires, I was having some rough running issues with my 2001 Trans Am and figured the old girl could use some nice wires. They fit great, had no clearance issues with long tubes. The only issue is that I believe I received a used set even though I supposedly bought new ones, they were all bent up and covered in what looked like greasy fingerprints. Not to mention the plastic bag they came in.

Lil short for my 2018 5.3 Silverado but it’s doable. Definitely better fit with the Msd coils. Noticeable start up difference, for the better! My acceleration has always been great so that can’t be measured, I’m gonna say Msd has always been better than stock but y’all make your own decisions.

Los cables son demasiado cortos , los compré para una silverado 2006 5.3 !Y son demasiado cortos, no quedan de ninguna manera !Tenía muchas espectativas sobre el producto ! Lo Cual me decepcione bastante !Una pulgada más largos que estuvieran y ajustarían Perfecto !Pero es preferible ahorrarse una pulgada de cable , que tener muchísimas más ventas
