I have a questions for those of you with MSD Super Conductor spark plug wires. How much did you pay and are they any better than the JBA Power Cables that Bernd sells?

Thanks

Don't know much about the JBA's but I paid $80 for my MSD 8.5s. But that was also a little too much because I bought them from a local speed shop. Summit Racing might have them cheaper.

Also, I have been told that the mopar performance wires in the catalog are made by Taylor and that they are real good except that they don't last long and if I remember correctly they were pretty cheap.

I called two local shops and one wants $90 and the other $80 for the 8.5s. I just want to make sure that I am getting the best price and that they are worth the money. Because if they are not worth $80-$90 I would rather spend $55 for the JBA's.

Sorry. I don't know much about about JBAs. I bought MSD wires from www.truckperformance.com for about $70. I just saw JBAs 8mm for about $40. I would say that the both MSD & JBAs would perform about the same. The JBAs 8mm would probably fit in the stock wire holders. Don't forget to change the Cap & rotor to brass contacts. Good luck.

The plug wires from JBA (8mm and 9mm) are built by the same company that builds the wires for MSD. (Nope...MSD doesn't make their own wires.)
