These wires look good but what are the offical specs on ohms resistance ? If they are 50 or below I am considering making a purchase.

I just bought the 9mm plugs, I previously had the MSD Super Conductor(which are actually for the Mustang); my observations.
1. MSD made for Mustang are too short, Ford's are just right.
2. MSD's kept popping off on right bank, did not fit on plugs very securly IMHO. The Ford's fit fine, could hear them click into place. After 2 weeks, no plugs have popped off.
3. Performance wise I would give a slight edge to the MSD, but because they like to popp off it is a disadvantage.
4. Price, Ford's are cheaper. Cannot remember exactly how much I paid for the MSD's but they were over $100, the Ford's were $85.
5. Delivery, got the MSD's from Summit Racing. Normally I can get something from them the next day, but because of backorders it was 2 weeks. The Ford wires took less than 1 week.
6. Color, the MSD's were dark red. Liked them but the Ford's are Ford blue, loved 'em.
Well, thats my .02, hope that helps some of you guys.

Thanks for the report. I was waiting for someone to try them. You sold me on a set.
One question. The last itme I was at that site it listed the price at $80. Is the extra $5 for shipping or has it gone up?
