For the price, and the mess around - just buy ICE leads, Justin @ tuff car parts will help you out.

I bought MSD coil packs so thought matching leads would be better but don't mind ICE .. Are they still based in Moorabbin?

I ordered mine from A1 as well about 15 months ago very happy if you have MSD coils it makes sense to put MSD leads .My mate tried putting standard leads on MSD coils and the leads were popping out

Looks like A1 is the most popular and everyone seems happy with them, i would've thought someone in Vic would be doing MSD leads though. |

I've currently got MSD leads on my TE50 - from A1 High Performance too.
Anyone got opinions on the Top Gun ebay specials? |

The Top Gun ones are about $160 plus post.
My MSD ones (which are admittedly very good quality and suited well with the MSD coilpacks) was $230 IIRC? |

Top Gun leads are junk and their service isn't all that great either, I had a set on my old AU that I knew were not performing (could see shorts in the dark etc) and weren't that old. They weren't interested in helping out and wouldn't even consider testing the leads to see if there was a problem.

I've used A1 in WA for the MSD leads too, very happy with the result. I picked black. Had them about a year now and got some nice heat boots from the US at a reasonable price (can't remember exactly what I paid for either but I know it was pretty good)

Has anyone tried Queensland Ignition Leads? He makes them to order, in any mm, and any colour you want, and can deliver, or pickup. I think a set of 9mm in blue for my AU6 was $85ish, made to order. They are great if you want the connectors on different angles, or shorter/longer leads, as he will make them as you please.

I've ordered MSD from A1 in red with 90 deg plug boots after looking how close these Hurricane extractors sit. Price is $235 + $15 express post to Victoria.

What angle plug end's are people using on these new lead's, I believe all are 45 deg apart from number 5 which is 90deg, or anybody have Herrod's header's, what have you used ?.
