My SVT was stumbling very badly so I switched out my Ford Racing wires for the old set that was on the car. It is driving so much better now. I had less than 20k on them and the old wires had over 60k. I have been feeling the stumbling for some time but it got much worse recently. I just couldn't believe it was those wires. I guess I will go buy some new ones since there is still a little bit of stumbling. The funny thing is my wife�s car has the Ford Racing wires with more than 30k and no problems. So I guess it really is hit or miss.

gone through 2 sets and no problems here. Replaced just because I probably "should" because of mileage.

Mine started misfiring after about 8K miles on them. It started misfiring really bad at the trackday. I took it to the dyno and the curves were all messed up. Switched them out for stock ones and gained back the 5whp that I had before.

Stock wires are Motorcraft fool.

I had 105k on mine before I just decided to change them because of mileage. Never misfired though.

Just replaced my old wires with brand new ones from Autozone with a lifetime warranty. There appears to be no more misfires and is running great. The car is so much better to drive.
