I'm ordering new plug wires this week for my 2000 3800 v6..there are the usual cheap junk cables for like $15, some for like $27, $31 and some for like $90..what would I benefit from the higher end cable, if anything..its all stock btw.

 

u get what u pay for. the 90 buckers are probly high temp material for headers. check into them and see what the diferences are. i used msd 8.5 wires on my 93 lt1.

 

yea i figured they "you get what you pay for" thing went along w/ that but sometimes you get raped on what you pay for lol..and I have a ballsless v6..so i think heat shouldnt be a problem lol..but thanks for the response, i just didnt know if there was some big secret i didnt know about

 

i wouldn't call 3800's "ballsless" cars..

 

yes you will get more spark with better cables
and better spark equals better ignition,
Better ignition equals better combustion,
better combustion equals more power
better plug wires equals more power
of course you also good coils and good spark plugs

 

Heat will be a problem if you don't be careful. Combustion creates alot of energy.

 

lol just get some high temp msd or Taylor cables and you will be fine.
