Default Your Recomendation for Spark Plug Wires

I've been using the Ford Motorsport wires. Did some reading and a few
sites said the Motorsport wires are far from the best, or even good. I
want some wires tailored to fit my application - 5.0. What's your
recomendation for a set of wires?

You read too much. What problems are the Fords causing you? How do you
think your car could be better with different wires?

Joe, I too have used them for years without any issues. But now that
it's replacement time again, I wondered if there was maybe something
better out there. I found a few of the aftermarket plug wire
manufacturers criticized them (go figure, huh?). One said the price on
the Motorsport wires is lower than a lot of plain ol' regular wires,
suggesting maybe they're not made with the best materials. However,
like a few posters have mentioned I'm really not pushing this car very
hard. And I'm really not anymore. Most of my driving is just cruising
down the highway. I think I'll look around a little more, but will
probably get another set. We'll see.

Thank you everyone for input!

Patrick

But "reading is fundamental".
