Default Which HT Leads

Noticed a slight chafage on one of my HT leads yesterday, so am going to replace the whole set soon. The lead is not rubbing on anything (sits just to the right of the rocker) & there is nothing for it to catch on, but never noticed it before so am going to change them.

So...which ones do YOU recommend ??
Engine is midly uprated: increased boost, possibly chipped, nothing major tho.
Currently have the red Ford Motorcraft 8mm items fitted.

Power Eng Magnecor: £50 inc postage

Nomad £30 + postage

Ford Motorcraft £ unknown price

What do the APT boys suggest? Nothing on their website.

Motorcraft got a rebuild done by Harvey Gibbs and he used the red motorcraft, so if the king of rs rebuilds uses them so do I...

Do you (or anyone) have a finis as my Ford parts cannot find them. He's usually quite good, but the leads for a mk3 turbo are not listed. Only leads there are individual ones and not a set.
Perhaps they're in the mk4 cat?

Halfords


I'm currently using standard Bosch ones at the moment, from any motor factors, and so is Christian. We also use standard RST plugs lol

I'll dig out the finis code for the set when I get a moment

Genuine Ford for both my toys. The bus gets any old crap as Audi would probably want my left leg and spleen for a set
