Plug Wires and Stock Distrubutor - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was thinking about throwing some new 9mm plug wires on the old girl. Leaning toward some MSD's, and I got to thinking. How much would adding bigger/hotter wires affect anything with stock coil and distributor? Would it be a waste to put these kind of wires on without backing it up with aftermarket juice?

I wanted to switch to HEI awhile back but decided against it after reading tons of posts about them and getting even more confused. Also with the question above whats the deal with billet and pro-billet distributors? What makes them better?
