I've also been told that genuine leads are good for LPG. I run genuine leads on by my AUs on the advice of my gas mechanic.

I of course, am running two I6s, so I can't offer you any advice on these specific items.

not a v8 owner anymore :( , so no not familiar with these leads sorry, but i`m a bit of a fan of the factory leads for the daily driver, an auto magazine did an article on ignition parts a few years ago and the factory ones got a good report amongst some more expensive aftermarket ones, let us know how you go.

For the I6 ... QLD Ignition leads are good ... i have run a couple of sets previously and they handled LPG well ... and the heat as well.

For V8 ... my mechanic tried a few different leads ... and ended up with the factory ones again on his AUIII XR8.

well thats about 50/50. for both leads. im tempted to go for the Ford leads at 150.00, i rang QLD ignition and they want 185.00 and extra for the heat shields.

do i have to have heat shields on all the leads? the guy at QLD didnt think so. my leads at the moment have a large heat proof material sock around all of them. they are quiet large and cover the leads for about 6 inches.
