Ten years ago I purchased a set of date coded plug wires for my 66 Convertible. The car ran fine and still does today with these wires. Back in 2011, I received a National Top Flight Award at the Novi National. I purchased a 65 coupe five years ago and also replaced the wire with LL plug wires. The car ran fine for a while and received a Chapter Top Flight award. However, a short time later, it started to miss. I replaced the coil and points/condenser but to no avail. I resistance tested the LL wires and found two to be open. I replace all of the wires with an aftermarket set and the car runs like champ.
Since I want to drive my 66 more now, I am considering removing the ten year old LL wires and replace them with AC wires.
PS- I read Mike McCagh's article on solid core vs. stranded wires.
