Spark plug wire sets are...weird.
"Custom-fit" sets have all the wires too damn long, so they're a crappy "fit" on dozens or hundreds of applications.
"Universal-fit" sets are cut-to-fit by the customer, so they fit perfectly on that one specific vehicle.
I've given up on "custom fit" plug wire sets. I always cut to suit, and crimp on the distributor-end terminals and boots when I'm not making the entire plug wire from scratch.
Given a choice, I prefer the helical-wound (sometimes incorrectly advertised as "spiral") plug wires having a fine-metal-wire core. They tend to have longer service life than carbon-rope core plug wires.
Don't pay any attention to the advertising that brags-up the "low resistance". They're deceiving you by NOT telling you about the HIGH INDUCTANCE. Resistance, or inductance--either one--kills spark current while not affecting spark voltage.
