Default Plug wires for LS1?

What are the best plug wires for an LS1 setup?
I'm using MSD's now and they are 4 years old. They don't see any header/exhaust heat.
Thanks.

Art,
What is the Ohms resistance per inch on the wires you are using?
What should the ohms resistance be for wires used with the LS-1 coils??
Are the LS-1 wires a lot shorter than yours?
I think I'm reading your mind on this.

Hi Adger. I'm using msd LS1 wires now. They are about 9 inches long each. When I ohm tested them 3 are 28 ohms and one is 26 ohms.
The coils seem to check out fine. A bright blue spark in the coil tester (through the wires).
I just checked the fuel injectors and they are all firing.
I might try to adjust the coil dwell, and see if that makes any difference. But it ran this way for 2 years.
If you are reading my mind now I'm sure you are hearing words you might have never heard. LOL

Here is a picture of the coils and plug wires. I was wondering if the bend they make could have a bad effect on them and not show when they were straight?

MSD still the best.Watch ultra low ohm wires.With stock ecm's and some data loggers we have seen problems,they act like a old solid core wre.
