I'm going to change the spark plug wires and add a ZIKO UNIVERSAL Grounding Wire Cable Earth System Kit. Which Spark plug wires are cool and has anyone tried the ZIKO UNIVERSAL Grounding Wire.

I thought you already did the Derek ground system, why would you want to throw good money away on this?

As far as the ignition wires go, they should be a good wire set but they are a little pricey you can get a fine set of NGK 8916 Tailor Magnetic Core Wires for a lot less.

I once had a set of Nology Wires. They worked very well. They had a ground wires coming out of each spark plug wire. For some stupid reason, I changed them. And fell for the old Ebay cheapo so called "nology" wires, so I thought. I ended up trashing both sets at $196.00 a pop.:doh: If you look around this forum somewhere I even cut one open to see how they were setup. (OK double :doh::doh:)


Regarding the Derek Ground kit, yes, I have that installed the Heavy Duty way with large wires and well made ends. And BTW, I still have the Pivot Voltage Stabilizer (also somewhere in this forum). Those Ziko wires are just to ground the spark plug wires. I've already send for the NGK 8916 Tailor Magnetic Core Wires. :wink Down the road I'm thinking of upgrading the Alternator. Also, BTW today came in from Amazon the second of Remote wiring harness for the second set of Rigidhorse light bar. Placing the 32 inch bar on the low side and the 42 inch on the hood. Keep Ravin

What would the ground wire accomplish on an ignition wire set? The spark plugs themselves are pretty well grounded being torqued into the head and unless the things connect to the grounding end of the spark plug its not doing anything or is it just a shield over the wires that it's grounding? Unless you have radio noise from the wires I don't see how this is necessary, sounds like one of those 100 mpg gimmicks to me. Save your money for something worth doing.
