These plugs good for DLIDFIS

I know I only need 2...I started searching on summit and found this. The most important part was to find the correct distributor terminal ends. So I just need a simple yes to let me know these will work. Thanks

since they are a universal cut to fit with the correct boots you need, they shoud be fine. MSD also sells a similar product if you prefer them over accel.

I tried before and it doesn't seem like the plug wires that go from distributor to plug will go on the coil. I cant use the ones already on the car right, unless I modify?

coz you aint doing it right. the boot is glued into the wire. Just pry it out so you can the wire can be fitted right to the coils (means extend the lenght if needed).

I also stick with stock wires. Even on modded setups. I've tried MSD, Accel, Magnecor, and more and have always went back to stock.

That looks like 2GDLIDFIS (or whatever acronym is attributed to it). Appears the wire doesn't have to be modified for that.

yea thats what it is but stock length wires should work ok. on my setup the stock wires were actually a little long. the accel set you were looking at will work just fine. eager to see how it turns out for you! i've been following your resto thread!

That is usually called 2GCDFIS. It's good to keep the names accurate for the search function to work.
