Description:
|
Magnecor's KV85 Competition (8.5mm) and R-100 Racing (10mm) Ignition Cables feature Magnecor's exclusive 2.5mm high capacity Metallic Inductance EMI Suppressed conductor consisting of stainless steel wire precisely wound at 200 turns per inch over a ferrimagnetic core. The insulating jacket is made entirely of Magnecor's exclusive TC-1500-HS high strength aerospace grade silicone rubber, and its single layer construction will prolong the jacket's insulating ability by conducting extreme heat away from hot-spots that occur near over-the-limit heat sources.
The KV85 8.5mm jacket has a service heat resistance of 600 degrees F (320 degrees C) and up to 1,000 degrees F (540 degrees C) for short burst 3 minutes. The R-100 10mm jacket has a service heat resistance of 700 degrees F (380 degrees C) and up to 1,200 degrees F (650 degrees C) for short burst 3 minutes. Even if limits are exceeded, the silicone rubber will retain its insulating ability until wires are removed from engine.
Magnecor Race Wires are primarily designed and constructed to be used in applications where it is essential to prevent the possibility of ignition wires compromising engine performance. Modern race engines, modified street engines and stock street engines which rely on electronic devices to control the function of either or both the ignition and fuel systems are prone to interference from all other spiral conductor ignition wires sold through performance parts outlets, none of which can provide proper suppression for EMI, particularly if a high-output ignition system is used.
We always recommend use of our Race Wires for any stock or modified late model street engine that is electronically managed, however most other modified or street engines can also use our Race Wires to improve ignition performance

Like most things in life, you get what you pay for. Magnecor wires may seem spendy compared to competitors, but these high quality items are extremely well made and the company has excellent customer service to boot. I got them for my '99 EB w/ 5.0 and they work awesome. Unfortunately, they don't come with the aluminum heat shields which are present on OEM plugs and there are some spots were you're very close to the exhaust manifolds. I'd recommend heat socks for those areas. While I had no issues over a span of about a year, and Magnecor also told me via email that their products can withstand the heat without heat shields (silicone is good stuff), there was a documented case of a wire crapping out with Torque Monster Headers. I went back to Motorcraft OEM when I went with headers to avoid this. I wouldn't put it past Magnecor to build you a custom wire or two to deal with this header proximity issue. They're that kind of company.
After trashing a Motorcraft wire during a spark plug change, I put one Magnecor wire back on and am considering the same for the remaining 7. I may need to work with Magnecor for a custom wire or two.
Superb product and worth every nickel.
