At that much more, you think it would be arc-welding the interior of the engine,lol. They also claim more HP, might be worth it.
Vilant,

Yes, they are very big wires. The Screamin Demon Coils and Nology Wires were bought and installed in 06/2000 by previous owner, I just looked through my 3 inch thick folder of receipts. Yes, they are $300ish a set. We have already reinstalled the plenum but I will remove it again to take a few pics, easy to pull plenum without coolant in yet.

I have known Daniel since high school and this being my first vette he has been helping me out. I picked up this Z in April of this year and have really been enjoying her. Daniel has a lot more experience with vettes but we are learning on the ZR-1s together.

Scott,

Like I stated above the previous owner installed coils and Nology wires, so I am not to sure about the performance claims. It would be cool to see differences with just wires swapped.
