You mean the Ford Racing 9mm wires?  Everyone has raved about the price and service from the Chigaco Connection - search for that to get contact info. I'll be contacting them next week to order a set for my CSVT, I just will have to deal with the wire holders. Scott

Do they sell a 8mm set of Ford racing wires? Just curious if this would save the trouble of making the 9mm fit the wire holders.

What would be the best plugs to put with these wires? I read lots of different ones on these forums.

If you have an SVT you already have 8mm wires... If you really concerned about the wire holders you can get them to match your new size wires, but a dremel on the old holders should do the trick. Originally posted by jbirdSVT:

Go with the stock replacement ones. The part # is in your owners manual.

I was under the impression that there are no replacement clips to hold the 9mm wires in the stock position. The 9mm clips just hang loose and do not affix the same way as the stock ones. Is this wrong?

I'm not sure how they attach because I don't have them. I was just going by the little ad on the side of my 9mm plug wire box.

I fit my 9mm FR wires in the original holders just fine. They're a little tight, but that's all, no big deal to squeeze them in.
