I just got a set of MSD wires for my V6 from Summit. $59. I
recommend these wires highly. I've heard that Magnecor are the best
wires you can buy, but they're expensive.
Make sure to get part number 32189. It's for the V8, but it works
just as well. I've heard that MSD now has an application for the V6,
but last time I looked on Summit's web site, the V6 set was more
expensive than the V8 set and listed as unavailable.
When I talked to them, I didn't give them the specific part number,
just described the truck. They gave me the wrong wires. The box said
they were for Chrysler 318 / 340 / 360, but they wouldn't have worked
on the Magnum engine. Had to send them back for the correct wires.
Also, if you care about appearance, you'll probably want to get some
larger wire separators. The MSDs squeeze in to the stock wire clips,
but it's pretty tight, and they could pop out. I just put some zip
ties around mine and called it good.
