Spark leads

Which ones are the best in people's experiences?

8mm would be the go, but what brands did people find worked well with their cars?

cheers

If you want really serious leads there's a mob in wollongong (I'm sure they're available elsewhere too) that sells leads with a wire wound stainless steel core, we used in our boat running a 350 Chev and they were unreal, heaps better than standard leads.

I'm pretty sure it was Wollongong Auto Supplies

I've used Repco to my advantage - other people will tell you differently.

Set of Top Guns for an EJ20 = $140.00. Ouch.
