I use HEI lead ends at both ends of the leads. Mallory Hyfire 6A Ign, MAllory MBI dizzy and HEI cap, Mallory 8mm leads and obviously connect to the HEI terminal fittings on the plugs.

You can change the lead ends - dead easy, chop em off, strip back the right amount depending on terminals being fitted, slip over the insulator boots, and crimp on the terminals.

See vehicle wiring products lads for the terminal choices including angled and straight plus the correct footwear (oops sorry boots).

Bling plug leads are just that. Good std grade need not cost the earth and will be made with the right ends.

http://www.fastlaneauto.co.uk/ do custom sets for not much money (60-70 for a set for a v8). I have a crimp that fits MSD ends, but havent found a source of the connectors.

If you go with ford coil packs the OEM connectors are a must. latching and completely waterproof. fit, and forget.

Yes I agree. I got mine made up by performance leads delivered for £50 they are 8mm custom made to my sizes all numbered and use "spiral" cores with the proper edis plugs on the end.
