How important is having the lowest resistance?

Well the less resistance the more spark energy that is available. Now at what point the resistance is too much and causes a problem I really don’t know. Low resistance values have always been touted as a selling point for plug wires though.

Go to the Magnacor website and read about conductors. Lowest resistance isn't always the best.

Yes, they can turn any valid point into a marketing tool.

That was the most marketing double speak I have read in a long time all the while trying to divert your attention from resistance to EMI. I'm not saying they don't make a good product and/or that EMI suppression isn't important in certain situations, (not sure that situation is a race engine). I'm not trying to support any specific product, just that I believe you need to read between the lines of their technical information. In the end they are still trying to sell a product.

I just have a set of MSD wires on mine so I am using probably exactly what I'm certain is what they say to avoid.

I would like to see in person the back to back of the 9 hp those wires claim in the link I shared. It's a crap shoot if you aren't able to do testing yourself.

I run MSD on mine as well and have zero issues. Also read a lot on conductors from other sources besides magnacor, and I stick by my statement that lowest resistance isn't always the best. EMI suppression is the most important, everything else is secondary, especially with the electronics we have now. I will say this though, unless you have some serious issues going on, I doubt you'll gain enough by changing wires to make any kind of noticeable difference. It all comes down to preference more than anything, and experience with a particular brand or style.
