Custom wire sets, in BLUE

I'm goign to be doing the DLIDFIS setup soon, w/ all new jacobs coils, and i'm gonna need to fab up some wires.

i'm HOPING to detail my engine in blue, so if i could get a set in blue that would be best.

So, where can i get a set like this, of GOOD wires, and is it goign to come w/ all the needed plugs and connectors? or am i gonna need to special buy those too?

Thanks!

Geoff

Why have you settled on DLIDFIS? I'm gonna try installing a direct fire system using a 2nd Gen coil similar to this setup

OOOOH!

And how does this fare, similar results to the DLIDFIS?

I'm very interested in this.

Will this use the stock wire setup? Cause i wanna just buy Jacob's wires and call it good....

Good question! Untill someone proves different I would say that they are absolutely compariable. Also, the 2nd Gen coil setup seems a whole lot simplier to me.... ya know... the KISS principle. I picked up a 2nd gen coil for 15 bucks on eBay + shipping ...... I'm giving it a try, it'll bypass the dizzy cap which seems to be the main advantage anyway. Once it's setup I'm gonna have a set of custom Magnecor wires made.

Blue NGK wires here too.

Somebody once fried an ignitor from hooking it to a 2nd gen coil. Maybe you'll have better luck? Er, good luck. (I have only ever used 1st gen coils)
