WTB: Solid copper core spark plug wires
« on: April 01, 2011, 03:31:41 PM »
ANybody???    I have been all over and nobody has it.  I only need about 18 inches or less plus 2 caps but every shop just scratches their heads and looks puzzled.    Any help is more appreciated than you can possibly imagine.

What vehicle do you want to use solid core wires on?

I used to sell the Packard 440 solid wiring by the food, but that was 20 years ago  :banghead:

Found this with a search of "packard 440"

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

The CZ of course   :banghead:       The coils have little tits inside that the lead has to actually thread onto.   I have tried J&M in Riverside and about 10 different hot rod builders, plus Malcolm Smith and a few others.   That is about all that is keeping me from racing this weekend, but it is enough.    I have a buddy coming in from Utah on Monday that thinks he has something that may work but I'm not holding much hope.  I think I can get the OEM stuff but it will take several weeks.   :mad:
Thanks for looking out tho Keith, I almost came by your shop just to ask.

Look up spark ignition wire for a boiler, I have an entire roll in my truck, it is made of tinned copper wire and has a high temperature insulation and rated at 100,000 volts...

Try a boiler shop or a refrigeration supply house... :sly:

Let me know where you want it sent and I will get it in the mail tomorrow...How long?

BTW it is orange in color.  8)
