I bought the tune up kit from Summit along with the coil and some grommets for my Mopar valve covers. Happy birthday to me.

Joey, the Accel tune up kit is a good one. I used it on my 99 5.9. Is it the complete kit with the U groove plugs too? Also, The wires come with coated boot for the spark plugs, and they recomend removing the stock heat shields around the plugs. IIRC, the wires were 8mm, and were good quality. I ask about the U-groove plugs becasue you may find yourself replacing them quickly like I did. We all know Magnums are very finicky when it comes to plugs, my 5.9 did not like the U-grooves at all. But in the the girlfriends' 98 Durango 5.2 they ran good. Go figure.

A couple weeks ago I personally put the Beldon wires on from Napa and liked them alot especially over the Mopar wires I put on there a few years back.. I also installed the Eichlin Cap & Rotor from Napa at the same time. I think everything ran me under $60. thats not including plugs, I replaced them a month prior.

I did get the kit with the u-groove plugs. Prior to my rebuild I used Autozone wires and cheap plugs, ran like a dream. This will be the first set of plugs on my motor, when I install it.
