1G-1na Coil plug wires. Anybody found a car that has the same size coil connectors?

I’ve been sitting on some ig-1na coils from sakebomb garage, hooked them up with oem plug wires just to verify it all worked.
Which it did... just arced because there was exposed metal.

I know sakebomb garage and a few other manufacturers (aem I believe) make cut to length specific wires. But they’re quite expensive, which I understand (quality product for a premium price).

So I’m looking for is some plug wires that will fit on these coils before I pull the engine.


ps: I know this may not fit this thread? But I haven’t been able to post anywhere else since last October iirc.

If they’re charging the $165+ custom set price then that’s a bit ridiculous, but unless you have the ability to make them yourself, SakeBomb is likely your only option since it’s essentially a custom ignition kit

However, the wires just a standard 90* sparkplug type connector on both ends, so easy to buy all the components and make yourself if you have a good crimper tool. Or you can buy a DIY kit, but my recollection is that I had to buy a V8 DIY kit to get the correct connectors on both ends with the particular wires I wanted. The kit comes with the sparkplug end already completed, so you still have to determine the length and install the coil connector end yourself on each wire.

Which will be enough for two sets of wires. A 4cyl kit would be ideal, but seems rare for those connectors on both ends. Nothing wrong with having a spare set imo though.

Or if someone can confirm the lengths I could make you a set. I made my own custom IGN-1A system and it won’t match up with where the coils are on the SB system.

The IGN1A uses "HEI" terminals, like so many distributor-based sparkalators. Summit has crimping jaws you can use with a bench vise if you want to go full custom, but I'd be inclined to crossreference something with HEI and make 'em fit.

bought the HEI kit, and they did NOT fit. Know anyone who wants to buy some Ig-1na coils. I’m getting so sick of putting these in, and going to connect the wires and them just falling off.
