karinvail Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I returned the new plug wires I got because they were not the right lengths (some were too long, one was too short). What plug wires are the best fitting/most reliable that you've found for an EA82? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Sounds like they gave you EA81 plug wires.. Thats happened to me a number of times. I finally just bought the accell 8mm cut to fit set.. its for a V8, so you get two sets in one:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northguy Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 NGK or Accell fit fine. I got a set of Accell wires from e-bay for 15 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTrain Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 i got some Autolite pro-fits at Checker for 20 bucks. pre cut and all their lengths are darn near perfect.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KStretch55 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Ditto on the Autolites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I've had good luck with Accel wires. I too bought a universal set for a V8 and made two sets for my car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thealleyboy Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 NGK's are the best for Subes, IMO. Besides being the correct legnth, they snap onto the plugs like no other brand I've ever tried. Plus, they look cool in blue!! The others just aren't quite up to par. Even the best of them pale in comparison. When you consider that NGK's are priced about the same as the "premium" grade aftermarket wires, it's really a no brainer. good luck, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Last set I bought were made by Wells; good brand and they were the correct length. At first, as Alleyboy has noted, the boots didnt fit on that tight. Well they have since shrunk up and fit nice I might have to try those NGK ones next; they sound good. Ive used the 8mm custom cut ones noted above; worked great on my 472ci V8. Took a while to cut, boot, and crimp them all however! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowman Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I'm going to try a set of those NGKs this summer then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
