ive seen alot... and not sure which are good or not good... prolly gona get them through summit b/c theres where alll the rest of the stuff is getting ordered from

I run the Mr. Gasket seperators that will work with 8mm wires I picked them up at Advance Auto Parts and they hold my 8.5MM MSD wires fine. They just keep the wires from touching each other and thats all I needed I like them a lot. I may not have them routed the best so I had to use two sets to keep them from touching each other at all the spots. I'm not sure if this is what you want or not. Make sure you get the right MSD set from Summit I ordered the one they brought up for my truck that was for the stock dist. or thats what it said and said from all vehicles 74-now or something and it wasn't the correct set for that truck the coil wire was too short and the others may be a little short but they worked how I have them routed. MSD said they were going to send me another coil wire but I haven't gotten it yet and that was a week and a half ago I'm still using my old factory coil wire.

awesome..thanks .. if you can can you gimme the part number from summit that you used to order so i can see if its the same that i am gonna order... thats what i did is bring up the wires by year make model... i noticed there were 2 seperate sets for sale.. thanks for the info

what im looking for for the dividers or separators is the ones that bolt onto the lip of the valve cover...or bolt on by the vavle cover bolts and lift the separators up higher off of the valve cover away form the headers...

i might just order 2 different sets and test them out...

My seperators don't bolt onto there but some do like my factory ones did. Let me look for the part # I'll be back to post it up for you in a minute.

These are what I ordred part # MSD-31309 Other than the coil wire being to short they worked though they just don't seem to be the right ones and the coil wire didn't work no way in hell to make it fit as it's about 1/4 the length it needs to be. Other than that they worked the boots where it connected to the dist. cap were also straight down instead of a 90 degree angle like the factory ones but it worked. People over on Pavementsucks.com said I need part # 32189 several guys seem to run them but Summit said they only say they will fit through 2000 so they didn't know if they would fit my 01. Everyone on Pavmentsucks.com says they will though but I haven't personally messed with it so don't know what to tell you.
