Ok i just put a motor from a 85 GMC in my 71 GMC. now I know there might be a little differance in wires for a points style ignition and an HEI, but not much. you would think after all these years GM could come up with plug wires that actualy fit. Instead you get wires that are to long, to short, and then wires that dont even belong in the kit. I have a rats nest of plug wires on this engine and dont like it one bit.

Does anyone out there know if you can buy a set of plug wires that fit.
