The straight boots are bendable on the MSD wire we bend them 45 degrees and they clear the header tubes perfectly and never have a burned wire again.

I received the covers today and I think the MSD wires are on the way. Thanks Ted.

These are the ones I went with when I had the same problem happen twice. Loved that you could bend them to fit your application. Still threw the heat socks for the extra protection. Also swapped the oil out after dumping a bunch of fuel.

I've heard of several others having this problem.
Went with the bendable MSDs & ceramic coated the headers all at once.
3k miles later and the wires look brand new

What kind of misfire are you having? Mine was a dead miss...if you are having the misfire, it should be visible in the logs.

If I am in a low rpm and go heavy with the throttle, it will feel sluggish, hesitate, makes a odd sound and the misfire count will go up on #7. I haven't gone WOT since the first time it happened, but on smooth yet heavy rolls, it will do it from time to time. If I go nice and easy, no misfires.

Swap plugs with another cylinder and see if the misfire follows it. If so it's the Plug. If the misfire stays on Cylinder 7.. Swap a plug wire with a different cylinder and see if it follows or stays.

Pull the spark plug, inspect for crack in porcelain, verify gap, and not fouled. Next would be to make sure the plug wire is seated properly on the plug. should hear 2 clicks...also check to make sure it's not burned.
