Accel Yellow Spark Plug Wires

[wsa111]

Chaz sent me a pm wanting to know the manufacturer of the yellow spark plug wires on my engine. Rather than respond with a pm i thought i would share the information to the forum.
The wire set is a universal 8mm resistance wire set for 6 cylinders. The accel part #4021. You have to cut them to the proper length.
Also if you buy the set get their accel crimping tool for the distributor cap terminals. The tool #170042 provides a cheap way of professionally crimping the terminals. William

i was admiring your engine and i was wondering what you have going on with your oil pressure gauge

The guage is a fuel pressure guage, the sending unit looking item is the oil pressure switch for my holley fuel pump. No oil pressure no electric fuel pump operation, it is a safety switch from holley. Thanks for your observation. William

Bill,

1st of all...I like it!!! Lookin at your distributer, are you running a Pertronix on that or just points?

Also,

Where did you get your aircleaner? Brand?

Alex, thanks for the additional input on available spark plug wire options.
Doug, i purchased the air filter from.
Air Filters for 14â€￾ X 3â€￾ filter
WIX 42095
FRAM CA136
K&N E-1650
AC A-279C
PUROLATOR A60074
Big b auto 909-852-3584
S2195B 14â€￾ recessed base
866-392-2442
This lists all the filters for the 14 x 3 ressesed base filter. The filter i think was $19.95 plus shipping, & was made in taiwan.I scrapped the filter that came with the package & purchased a wix. Just wanted an americam made filter. This recessed base clears all my linkage & the float screw which sticks up from the float bowl. I have at least 1 1/2' of hood clearance on my 67 mustang.
I am using a pertronix I in the distributor. I have purchased a ford durospark distributor & have modified the total advance plate & have install lighter springs to get the centrifigual advance in by 2500-2800 rpms. I also per your recommendations got the msd 6al with rpm limiter along with the duraspark direct pigtail adapter. When i get the carbs fine tuned i will install the duraspark & the msd. Bill
