    I got a set from Jay Smith Racing for about $40 or so and they are great. I want to say 8.5 mm. Real nice wires.

    Mike- you can look up the correct OEM wires on our website (BY ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER) at: European Marine- Parts Department

    Serial number is VERY important...

    No problem, Mike- I was simply pointing out to you that you had the WRONG PART NUMBER LISTED (you can't use 881908T plug wires on an engine with ADI ignition coils).
