Key Features
MSD Super Conductor Technology
MSD’s Super Conductor design is engineered to deliver maximum ignition energy with minimal resistance.
Benefits include:
- Strong spark delivery
- Reduced voltage loss
- Improved combustion efficiency
- Consistent ignition performance
This allows more ignition energy to reach each spark plug for improved engine performance.
Ultra-Low Resistance
The MSD 35599 features less than 50 ohms of resistance per foot, making it one of the lowest-resistance helically wound ignition wires available.
Advantages include:
- Maximum spark transfer
- Improved throttle response
- Reliable high-RPM ignition
- Better combustion under load
Low-resistance wires are especially beneficial for modified engines equipped with performance ignition systems.
Kevlar® Reinforced Core
Inside each wire is a Dupont Kevlar® conductor core.
Benefits include:
- Excellent tensile strength
- Improved durability
- Resistance to stretching
- Long service life
Kevlar reinforcement helps the wires withstand years of engine vibration and heat cycles.
Advanced EMI & RFI Suppression
MSD wraps approximately 40 feet of conductor into every foot of ignition wire.
Combined with the ferro-magnetic impregnated core, this design creates excellent suppression of:
- Electromagnetic interference (EMI)
- Radio frequency interference (RFI)
Benefits include:
- Cleaner ignition signals
- Reduced electrical noise
- Stable ignition operation
- Reliable performance with electronic ignition systems
High-Temperature Outer Jacket
The heavy-duty 8.5mm silicone outer sleeve is manufactured using a proprietary high-temperature compound.
Advantages include:
- Excellent heat resistance
- Abrasion resistance
- Oil resistance
- Moisture protection
- Long-term durability
The durable jacket helps protect the ignition conductor in harsh engine bay environments.
Why Upgrade Spark Plug Wires?
Replacing worn ignition wires can help eliminate:
- Engine misfires
- Rough idle
- Hard starting
- Hesitation
- Reduced engine power
- Poor fuel economy
- Ignition voltage leakage
Fresh ignition wires restore dependable spark energy throughout the RPM range.
Ideal Applications
The MSD 35599 is an excellent choice for:
- Small Block Chevy 350
- 327 SBC
- 305 SBC
- 383 Stroker
