Spark plug wires : what is the difference?
I have a 429 with a pertronix ignition , which plug wires work best? 500 ohm per foot , 150 , 300 , etc. What do you all recommend and why. What does the different resistance do?
Just be sure to use wires which are "good enough" for your application and not be the bottleneck in the sparking ignition system ... anything more is just a waste of money.
You have to remember too that the secondary portion of the ignition system is high impedance so a few hundred ohms resistance is inconsequential one way or the other and as Randy said it serves as a choke for RFI.
