        The jacobs wires actually are ok. I took an ohmmeter and tested
the stock
        wires. They were 18000 ohms. The Jacobs wires I put on there
were 250
        ohms. BTW, my friends MSD wires were 150 ohms. One of the
Jacobs wires
        fell on a header pipe and burned through. Jacobs sent me a new
one in 2
        days. No questions asked and it was free. I think their
ignition is
        probably a waste of money, but the wires are good. (they should
be for 90
        bucks)
