Mac. Where did you find these figures? Number 1 needs to be a lot longer (14 to 16 inches). Measure twice, cut once. I didn't do anything yet.<hr></blockquote>
Doesn't the BJ8 use a "conventional looking" distributor cap?
I know that the earlier cars (like mine) use the side entry cap with the wires being retained by the piercing screw.
With the wire coming straight out the top (on a BJ8), I can see where it could be shorter than one wrapping around the distributor.
Years ago, I started buying high tension lead in bulk (Belden Cable) and have been making my own ever since.
