I am shopping for some new ignition wires while keeping a budget in mind. Especially considering that Beru wires have been recommended by several members here, the price of this set makes them a no brainer for me. The questions is, are they the correct wires for a '73 2.0? Other vendors don't list them for this engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

The long connectors are designed to fit the #2 and #4 spark plugs on a 1.7 or 1.8 car, which are pretty deep inside the cooling tin.
