I think it is time for new plug wires on my 66 small block. I still run the original shielding and the car is not judged. I was going to use the Petronix 708101 but searching the archives revealed some of the wires are too long and bunch up around the distributor. I am thinking of using the Delco 508N, ie, graphite on a thread.
A tip on installation from the archives was to cut the spark plug boot off the old wire, tape the new wire to the old, and pull it thru the shielding including the shields on the block sides
My question is are the Delco wires strong enough to be pulled thru the shielding? I am assuming these wires are fragile. Has someone used this installation method without damaging the wires?
