Bob,
>From time to time I read on this list some tend to swap to modern technology gimmicks. I know from experience and from my job as an electro-technology specialist, its not always good to do so and just wanted to highlight that you shouldn´t change to carbon with ignition wires.

Joesf,

I wasn't planning to change to carbon ignition wires for driving, just 
for checking the timing.

They are prone to fail after some period of time and cause intermittent interruptions. The engine bay and the area where the wires run close to the engine, exhaust, etc. are much too hot.
