Default Best Plug wire set and Coil Pack options..

I have a 98 Cobra and wanted to know what combination works the best whether its the MSD coil packs with MSD wires or Ford racing wires and MSD coils ect. and theres the Screaming Demon coil packs on there too and Performance distrib. LiveWires and the others out there just want the best plain and simple I am finding it hard to choose the combo. thankx guys

Actually, stock Ford coil packs are the best on the market, IMO. I've used them in setups making over 1000hp with no problems. Longevity wise, they tend to last a lot longer as well.

As for wires, I generally use FRPP wires or MSD's.

Yeah thats what I have always thought cuz i still have the stock coils and even stock original plugwires and everythings fine it runs great but i just wanted to make sure cuz after all they are ten plus years old and the wires are clean no oil residue or anything. I just changed O2 sensors and everything and wanted it to be tip top shape with no worrys..
I priced screaming demon coils at 98.97 each and LiveWires at 165 for the set but the price doesnt scare me at all if its good equipment. But with the age of the stock wires ect. i was thinking of replacing them anyways and wanted to see what everyone out there thought. thankx guys

I'd always suggest sticking with stock Ford coil packs, but plug wires are up to you. I'd run Accel, MSD or FRPP wires only (again, just my opinion from experience).
