    Got a 302 SBF in a Fox body, gt40 iron heads, 9.0 Compression ratio, 8 -10 # boost from a single turbo, looking for plug and plug wire recommendation.

    Headers...I was told custom...not to bad, can be used without any insulation sleeves...however, I do have sleeves on some wires.

    I have been running the accel wires that have ceramic boots on them. A little pricey but thay have held up good for a while now.

    Run a couple heat ranges colder and Id just get some boots and run what you have for wires. I ran the ford motorsport blue wires with no issues. Just put boots on the ones that were close.

    On the GT40's I dont know what would work best... 90º or 45º boots.

    Im using the MSD wires. They came with a straight boot and weren't going to work. So I bought eight 45º boots. Cut the wires to length (came with 4 -5 inches extra) and crimped on the boots. Worked out well.
