Can I use a set of my racing plug wires on my WD-45? My local NAPA man (old school fella that knows his stuff) says I can't run the suppression core wires, they have to be the steel core wires. I don't see what difference it would make... I've been turning 600+ HP with the suppression type wires and I'm not seeing why they wouldn't be good for less than 50.

Thanks,

Greg

Greg, your 600 HP machine probably has a very high volt coil. Suppression wires are great if your tractor has a radio, but that is the only reason. Always go with solid core wire for more power delivered to plug. Suppression is a trade off.

As long as your 45 has a distributor, the racing wires will work ok. A magneto doesen't like anything but the original wire core wires.

Excellent. I guess I should have surmised that... I knew about mags and solid core wires, I guess, just didn't put 2 & 2 together. Mine had a the distributor, so I'm good. Thanks!!
