i'm still confused...."plug wires for a M20 cost more then the ones for an M42?" yet "6-cylinder plug wires cost LESS then 4-cylinder wires."

Some people are just retarded...

I guess I'm retarded, but I figured 4 plug wires would cost less then 6 would.

Ok why the hell do the plug wires for a M20 cost more then the ones for an M42?

Fucking lame, 6-cylinder plug wires cost LESS then 4-cylinder wires.

/end rant.

Did you read this???????????
So I guess you are saying in actuallity they cost the same?
M20 = 6 cylinder
m42 = 4 cylinder.
Sorry guys could have gone on for a week, I had to end it!

Obviously this guy mistyped. Let's get over it already.

Heh, I didn't mistype shit..

Go to the site and look how much plug wires cost for the M42 cost:

$80 for the 8mm wires.

Now lets see how much they'd cost for the 6-cylinder cars in the same 8mm size:

http://www.apexperformance.net/cartgenie/prodInfo.asp?pid=541&cid=10

$50 for the 8mm wires. Call me crazy but I figured 6 plug wires would cost more then 4, not $30 less. I may be missing something really big, but hopefully that clears up what I meant by my first post? 6 wires costing $50 and 4 costing $80 is some bull.

The M20 is from the 70s and the M42 is from the 90s. Technology makes it more expensive. Haha, this motor is lame a shit.

The plugs wires are for the M50 also if you look at the years it applies to, up to 1998 I think but the sites not working on mozilla right now so that might not be exact. I just put M20 because I was too lazy to list everything out.

I have a Budget Heeter mod to add:

6 new Bosch Super spark plugs: $8.64
1 new valve cover gasket: $7.68
1 tube Anti-Sieze compound: $4.79
Feeler gauges: Already had them

Mod total: - $21.11

Performed a valve adjustment and installed new spark plugs. Car runs better, idles better, pulls hard as fuck up to speed, and is noticeably faster. I'll bet I gained back a good 5-10 horsepower I'd lost by having out-of-adjustment valves and way-overdue and fouled spark plugs. I just wish I could have gained that extra 1-2 hp by installing a silicone elbow on my throttle body, and eliminating all that bad flow from the ribbing of the stock boot.

The moral of the story? Standard preventative maintainence will always prevail over shit $50 ebay bolt-ons. In fact, I'm willing to bet with just my Jim Conforti chip, and having nice new spark plugs and freshly adjusted valves, I could walk Budget Beatoff's car with no problems. But that's my e-cock talking.

TJ, re-read my post, and check out the sarcastic undertones...

It pains me that you though I was serious.

[Ray Smoodiver]

I thought you were serious.

[Jand3rson]

Well, ya see what you get for thinking? :D

Man, I am soo dissapointed in Charlie Grafton.

He should have said, "This thread is gayer than genital warts on your anus," second post in.
