SMG Ceramic Plug Wire Upgrade
Our 8mm SMG Ceramic Plug Wire Set uses white ceramic spark-plug boots that will not melt against hot header tubes the way conventional boots can. They are built for close-clearance header installations, and they are the only plug wires we use on SMG in-house header builds. Select the SMG Ceramic Plug Wires upgrade to add SKU 9070C.
Processing & Shipping Overview
Processing occurs before shipping.
Most in-stock items typically process within 2–3 business days before shipment or pickup. Expedited shipping options affect transit time after an order ships and do not speed up processing.
Made-to-order, special-order, vendor drop-ship, and freight items require additional processing time before shipping. Any extended lead times will be noted on the product page when applicable.
For the most up-to-date order status or lead time questions, please contact sales@smgspeed.com or use live chat during business hours.
