Who makes the best distributor/wire kits?  I like the detail of the distributor in the picture but would like to know if anyone makes one like that with plug wires???

I use Morgan Automotive Detail. http://www.madmodeling.com/

I haven't seen anything with that kind of detail though. Even for his you have to add the vacuum canister.

Replica & Miniatures makes a very nice distributor that is pre-drilled and molded in color.

I also vote for MAD dizzys.

Another for MAD distributors.  Norms are good as well if you want a unique color.  You can also buy vacuum cans from Norm to use with his or Kris' distributors

MAD all the way, look great and come in many colors for the cap and wires.

I mix my own.

A combination of Alclad colors.

Polished Aluminum, with a little bit of Pale Gold added.

You can get the same basic affect using Testors aluminum with a touch of gold, but I like the more realistic sheen you get from Alclad.

M.A.D. is my preferred distributor. I have about three dozen in the stash, and nearly that many on built models!! Different color caps, and different color wires. many combinations to choose from.

[Kris Morgan]

Wow, thanks for all the kind words folks. Much appreciated.

I feel dizzy when someone calls a distrubutor "dizzy".

I keep looking at these on eBay - they look pretty nicely made I think:

I also picked up a Gopher Racing one last week when I was ordering something else anyway so I could see what theirs were like...they’re definitely pretty low down the scale in terms of detail and if you have a couple of sizes of tube and some wire you can make your own just as good I’d say

You can absolutely make your own.

It's just a matter of if it's worth the effort, or if it's just as easy and looks just as good to spend a couple of bucks and have someone else do the work for you.

Absolutely!  I really need to try those MAD ones, they look GREAT!  

[SCRWDRVR]

I just recently bought my first ones from MAD, nice product and next time I buy some it will be from there as well...

Scale Repro's Plus plug wire is the same gauge as the MAD wire, with a duller finish. I used it on this 327, using the kit distributor because the coil was attached to it:
