Default Which MSD wire p/n?

I got my new MSD wires today, p/n 31323. Per MSD tech, these are the correct wires for my application (MSD 6AL and pro-billet distributor). Anyway, the plug ends are "multi-angle" which just looks like straight to me, not the 45* wires that I've always used. The problem with these is that many of them look like they will rest right on the headers which certain won't do.

So, what MSD wires are you using or which other high performance wires are you using?

Thanks!

I use Accel 8.8 wires. They stay away from header tubes by quite some distance. The only thing I don't like is that the metal clip comes off way too easily.

Yeah, I went ahead and ordered the Ford Racing wires. I've used them before, but figured since I needed new wires anyway and bought a new distributor with the HEI retaining cap, I'd get the MSD wires. Not only are the plug ends straight, the distributor end does not have the little doohickie to fit properly on the cap. [:@]

Do the Ford wires still come with two different coil wires, one long and one short? I didn't know, so I also ordered a 30" coil wire to reach the fender that I may or may not need.

Thanks for the help.
