Questions on a 3.9 rover v8 -
Does a 4 in 1 exhaust make a noticeable difference ? been told that engine will perform better and cooling will be better as well.
Any experience with miller stainless steel ones ? any good ?
HT leads - are Lucas ones good ? been told that Magnecore are the best.
Coil - is Lucas one good ? been told to replace with Bosch.
Thanks

Lots of negative comments about new Lucas stuff. Seems it's not made to the same standard as the originals. Bosch, at least, are still the same company that makes OEM for current cars.

Magnecore has "in my opinion" to much resistance.
I prefer MSD Superconductor 8,5mm leads. They are sold in DIY universal assembly kits complete with tool.

Odd name for plug leads - super conductor. Wonder if they know what that means?

I ran 4 into 1 tubular manifolds, and found them to be much noiser than the standard cast 4 into 2 EFi manifolds.
I didn't notice any power change.

Here are my favourite conductors...they're not just super, but decidedly lovely
