I just checked my 034 plug wires and they range from 4.7 to 21.7, I think I've found the elusive miss.

Default Gimme a buzz Monday, we'll get you sorted out with some fresh wires.

Seems like a couple guys recently have started having problems.

We'll be switching to a much higher priced, but hopefully more consistent performing plug end on new sets. As it seems this is where most all the problems are occurring.

We've been running the wire set you're on for years with no problems until lately. The set on 80tq has been on there for a couple years, and over 700whp w/o a single problem.
