It only took me 44years

I don't know about you guys but every time I would buy one of those ready made packs of spark plug wires , I always had one that was a little tight . Yet every time it was time to do it again , I signed up for the same failure . So it was time to do the 'burb and was really dreading the same thing happening and I thought BBC have the same distributor and plugs as a SBC , why don't I just tell them I want those ? Wala ! Problem solved !

fun fact--the 460 ford "duraspark" ignition wire set fits both
small and big block chevy with HEI..........

They'll make it all the way to the back of the engine ? Haha
good to know if I'm ever in ford country .

Is this because of the way the OEM/factory runs the plug wires.
most worked over vehicles the wires are not run the same way, Could that be why the small block ones come up short?
But good thinking on buying the big block set.

I think it the after market thinking , " If we screw every sbc guy out of 3 inches , we'll end up with 5000 more sets of wires in X about of time ." Just my .

I have used SBC wires on my 5.0 when I needed 90° spark plug boots. The down side is they don't have the correct coil wire.
