I am using bosch premium wires on my 93 f150 5.0 because they have low resistance. I heard later on that bosch doesnt work well on anything thats not german. I can get 9mm ford racing wires online for 42 bucks. My question is, would it make a big difference? Anybody have ford racing put in and go WoW? Everything else is stock with a new rebuild put in 38,000 ago. Thanks in advance.

If the Bosch wires are delivering enough spark to fire the plugs there's no point replacing them. That's all they have to do. Unless you're just trying to get rid of your money.
If your truck runs good now, you won't notice a difference.

Agree with Chris...

Okay thanks, one more question. I had put an accel super coil on the truck and it burned off the button on the underside of the cap, the part that makes contact with the rotor. It also fried the pickup coil in the distributor. I am installing a factory oem coil. Is possible that a low resistance coil wire could be the reason? I dont want to have to replace another distributor. Thanks.

The super coil just has too much voltage. It looks good but you don't need that much voltage and it just fries stuff - as you already found out, I guess. The original equipment stuff works really well for decades - no point messin' with that.

Okay, i am going with factory. Ford did right with my truck, why mess it up. Thanks for the feedback!
