are there MSD wires that work with the merc 260? thunderbolt ignition. they make wires for the 350cid car engine but those go over the manifolds while marine application go under so im not sure if the length difference will matter. anyone have problems running a low resistance wire? i realize this wont gain me performance but is still nice to have as strong and reliable spark as possible.

well i dont mind a little bit long as long as they are not ridiculously long. i dont want to make my own wires and have to crimp them, looking for set that are plug and play, i can deal with sourcing a coil wire though

looking on summit, msd p/n 35599 says in description that they run under headers/manifold and includes the disty wire. anyone have experience with them?

I would just get the correct set. Last year a ran across a set made for the 5.7l EFI Merc for $12 at rock auto on a clearance.
