Spark Plug Wires

I just replaced my old spark plug wire with new Clevett red wires and they look great. The old wires had ground straps. Do the new wires need ground straps? If ground straps are needed how do I incorporate them in to the new wires?

Cheers John

I assume by ground straps you're talking about the straps coming off the stainless braid? Then no you don't need it,it was a feable attempt by Porsche to halt air box explosions on CIS cars. If you have any problems with your car running rough after washing it or in the rain the Clewett wires had a problem about a year ago with water creeping past the braid into the ends,it supposedly has been fixed but keep that in mind.
