Warden Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I agree except on the anti seize.Talk to any racer with aluminum heads and they will tell you to use anti seize or a few drops of oil.Aluminum threads strip and corrode much easier then iron threads.Just good practise. I never ran anti seize on the plugs and never had issues removing them. Also never needed to use a removal tool with MSD wires (ever). Always used my hands and they came off with out issues. The truck WILL go into closed loop operation with or without a tune. You will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes aluminum threads are weaker than cast iron threads for sure. I still wont/don't use anti-seize on spark plugs though regardless of the head material, thats just me though.

zachm89 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I believe AC Delco has changed the part number from 41-985 to 41-110 if I remember correctly, or you can get an NGK 7164(Tr55iX) since they are virtually the same thing. Either the MSDs or Taylors are fine, it was the older Taylor wires that had issues which were corrected several years ago..... I wish I could agree with you there Dan but I don't. I was running the Taylor 409 10.4mm wires on my truck and when we were putting the Procharger on 2 of the wires were melted to the core because the boots don't bend enough to get the wires away from the primaries and 4 of them the clip inside the boot pulled out and were left stuck on the plugs. I'd go with the MSDs just because of the better boot design, other than that there's nothing wrong with the Taylor "wires" themselves. To the OP, g/l with your little mods you're doing and yes you will be fine with the 160* stat until you get it tuned, you may see a slight loss in MPG until then but nothing severe.

I haven't had any issues with my Taylors, they have been on the truck close to three years, had them off this past weekend and they were fine. I had issues with those MSD boots because they were so long, even bending the boot out of the way, they always found their way back to straight, and laid right up against the primaries. I guess it's just a matter of personal preference..... On a side note, is the Procharger install complete yet? We want sound clips!!!
