I try to keep my 41 Flathead as period correct as I can- right down to the always conducive metal wire looms. After only 300 or so miles I find these new color coded spark plug wires discoloring from heat. is there an alternate source for high quality wires? Perhaps n.o.s. or hot rod. We like to drive our cars!

hot rod source was womdering were you bought your wires from. I rewired my 37 years back and they look ok these were bought from RHODE ISLAND WIRING, But for members looking to do their ign wires it might be a good think to know my 3 cents 37 Ragtopman

I have used wires like these on cars that were drivers without encountering any problems. https://cgfordparts.com/spark-plug-wire-set-37-41-pass-pu-39-41-merc-v8-78-12259.html#description

I bought mine for my '37 from Third Gen in Tennessee. The quality was great and I'm happy with them but they are a little pricey.

I was unaware of color-coded wires. I still have the original wire looms but a previous owner installed an electronic distributor module and changed the wiring to spiral-wound stainless steel to reduce electronic interference.
