Magnecore 10mm - 2.2kOhm/ft. (That's 2,200Ohms.)



From the CraneCams website
8.5mm wire www.cranecams.com/?show=browseParts&lvl=3&prt=72&PHPSESSID=9c653e2aaac5d00bd5858388ed33a500&showAll=yes, double-silicone, reactive-core design reduces RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) that can disrupt on-board computer and audio equipment function and performance. Ready to install custom sets and universal cut-to-fit sets with or without heat sleeve.


A bit more than four, but way less than 2.2kOhm/ft.

Just thought I would share. emoji

That is the old Crane wire. If you notice they have a new prefix on the part number indicating the new wire. 250 was the orginal prefix, then new wire is 255- prefix

Dude I run Crane Wires and a Scream Demon coil on my personal car, and my race cars. I also have access to everything through the store if I want. I choose Crane wires and the Screamin Demon coil packs.

Currently I have the MSD coil pack and MSD wires. I just want to replace the wires for the heck of it.

Nothing wrong with the stock wires..

really.. HV could care less about the low voltage ohm readings..

get an HV coil (that'd be high voltage) and that's all ya need. sure gary wants to sell wires.. and i got no problem with that..

but if you dig around.. and look real hard.. the stock wires were fine for PACWEST.. and.. personally.. i think they know which way up is.

I use stock wires w/ my MS setup and they have been fine at 25 psi thus far.

I'd replace the coil first, since the MSD has the same secondary output as stock coil. The Screamin Demon is actually an upgrade over stock.
