January 23, 200422 yr Definitely 8mm. You will have to get a set of make your owns though. They don't make a set of 8mm for the EA series cars(at least that I have been able to find). So you found a rig did you? What did you end up with? You'll have to come by and check out my '85 Brat now that it's done. Ken
January 23, 200422 yr Author I found an 86 with a touch over 100,000 miles for $400. It has electric everything except no sun roof. Runs really good besides the weak brake pedal. I just need to find the time to work on it. I will bring it by one day soon and check out the hyper active Brat you have. I have been reading your thread about it.
January 23, 200422 yr Magnecor makes a real nice 8mm for EA's. Electrosports-70 7mm cable, part number 4775 - $41.68 Electrosports-80 8mm cable, part number 4075 - $43.95 $7 shipping I believe. Check it out. http://www.magnecor.com/magnecor1/main.htm And
January 23, 200422 yr Like I said in a previous post, if you use the accel superstock coil, you might as well go with the accell 8 mm wires with it. 8 cylinder universal kit is like 24 bucks and you get twice the wires if you get a reg. plug wire kit for a subaru

January 23, 200422 yr I think the question was meant to help identify which engine matches a subaru engine when it comes to the correct length of spark plug wires. If one orders a V-8 set one gets extra cables for not much more money but which engine would give one the proper length cables for a subaru.
January 23, 200422 yr like I said in about 3 other Accel coil/wire/plug threads 8 cylinder universal kit there are 8 wires in there, use the ones that you think it the best. I like my wires a little longer so I used the longest ones and then I ahve 4 shorter ones that I could swap out to. The longer set I have on are about 2 inches longer then what you'd get if you specified you wanted OEM plug wires The shorter ones are just a hair longer then the subaru ones. This is getting way more complicated than it needs to be: 8 cylinder universal kit 8 cylinder universal kit 8 cylinder universal kit
January 23, 200422 yr I did didnt I? Like I said in a previous post, if you use the accel superstock coil, you might as well go with the accell 8 mm wires with it. hee hee.. God I'm bored.. Friday and no one to go rallyin with
January 24, 200422 yr you can't use hei chevy one male output on disy ford i think is the same way i think dodge has female disy on the cap
February 1, 200422 yr I went to get my wires tonight.. took about 10 minutes to convince the guy at the counter that I wanted the 8mm universal Accell wires...for a subaru.. Then another 10 minutes to find out that the stock room was locked and the manager with the key won't be in until monday:temper: Soo ahh Torxx.. you got a part number on those wires brutha?
February 1, 200422 yr Author I will have two extra sets of blue Taylor 8MM universal 4 cyl wire sets this week. I found a deal on three new sets last week. Should be here by early next week. I will only need one set. Interested?
February 1, 200422 yr Accel 5040K is a universal 8mm set that you cut and crimp to fit. Comes with the crimping die that you clamp in a vise and works real good. Then you can cut to your own length. I used the 5 shortest, the next 4 are over double the lenght of the shortest a Subaru 4 cyl. needs for future use.
