Universal Wire Set for GM

GEN III Engines

PN 32079 / PN 32073

This Universal Wire set gives you the choice of using a 90° or straight/Multi-Angle boot and

terminal on the spark plug to accommodate for the header variances. Once you have determined

the style boots to use, you can cut the new wires to length then install the correct supplied coil

terminal and boot. A Mini-Stripper-Crimper Tool is supplied to help you achieve a strong, factory

type crimp.

Figure 2 Stripping the Sleeve.

Tools Required:

Razor Blade

Vise (4" Minimum)

Needlenose Pliers

Optional:

PN 35051 Pro Crimp Tool

1. Once you’ve determined wire length and spark plug

boot to use, position the wire in the corresponding strip

guide of the strip tool.

2. There are two stripping positions on the stripping slot,

when installing the LS1 terminal it will require you to strip

the wire at standard terminal length (Figure 2).

3. Remove the wire and twist the cut sleeve off in a coun-

terclockwise direction.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 4. To achieve the strongest crimp possible, it is required to bend the crimp tabs over about 90° using needle nose pliers. Figure 3 shows an example. Figure 3 Stripping the Sleeve. 5. Bend the conductor back along the wire insulation. Slide the wire into the terminal with the conductor positioned so it is in contact with the bottom of the terminal (Figure 4). Push the wire through until the sleeve protrudes about 1/8” beyond the crimp tabs. Figure 4 Preparing the Terminals.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3 Note: DO NOT OVER-CRIMP! It is possible to tear the sleeve of the wire by excessive pressure on the vise. This will cause a weaker crimp. 10. Back off the vise and remove the wire from the Crimper. Gently tug the terminal and inspect the position of the conductor to make sure the crimp is solid and firm. 11. To ease installation of the boots, use a drop of a dielectric grease such as MSD’s Spark Guard, PN 8804. A can of spray silicone will also work well.
