So one of my Beru wires went bad with only 1000 miles on it, = not happy camper
Looking for recommendations and sources. 2.0 liter (short ends) Was talking to LN Engineering about Magnecor 8mm # 40442 $96.05 https://lnengineering.com/products/magnecor...n-wire-set.html Thoughts If Magnecor then what size? Thought 8mm just fine for my set up. (For my 2056 w/ L-Jet) Thoughts and sources? (Thanks in advance, Pete) |

Update:
I ended up going with : Magnecor Electrosports 70 SS Ignition Wire Set including coil wire, 7mm (black)(1974 Porsche 914 4-cyl T Part #: PEL-MAGN47442 https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/PELM...n=PEL-MAGN47442 Via pelican parts. $101 with Free delivery. (Sept 2021) I received them in under 5 business days drop shipped from their supplier. They are 7mm which allows the utilization of the oem wire holders. The wires have 90 degree bends a the cap which I like but they are a bit long. I am guessing that they kept them the same length as oem but the 90 terminals shorten the needed length. Oh well, Better too long than 1mm too short. They run just as good as the $30 Beru's did. I spent the money on the Magnecors in the hope that they last longer than 1 year! I hope that this helps anyone searching in the future. |
