Spark plug leads...how do you make them?

Talking of plug leads...

I need to make up a new set for my AW11. The ones that are on there are the standard length ones which means that my coil pack is bolted to the rocker cover....not a good place for it to be!

Can plug leads be taken to pieces? I can then just go and buy 4 of the really long ones that superp00 sell and just stick the ends from my existing set up on them and then move the coil pack somewhere away from heat and vibration?

Or is there a kit I can buy to make up a new set?

take your existing leads to repco/A1,

they will have some on the shelf, and match them up, or have them made to the length, they can do the order for you,

I've also had Top Gun leads made custom to order in the past... you can get them done through Repco.

Change to Coil on plug. Fixed.

I get long leads and then shorten the end that normally plugs on the coil, they usually have a simple crimped end, works great

Awesome....I can just go and buy some nice long ones and put my existing ends on them!!

Buy the roll of wire from summit, or jegs, the packet of end connectors and crimpers then make your own, I have for my 2tg when I went to a DIS, cheaper in the long run and allows me to reuse the dust cover boots. Good Luck

in the top gun catalouge we have at work, it tells you the length of the leads needed, and whether they are straight or right-angled ends.

it'll have the kits, the next to that
r16 r18 r20 r22 c16

r for the angle, and c for the coil lead (the number is the length in inches),
so if you just go into any parts shop they should be able to look it up and just go a few inches longer
