Spark Plug Ends
Ok, this is going to sound like a stupid question, but i can't figure this out for the life of me. I've purchased new plug ends (the boots that go over the spark plugs themselves) from our host. I need to make up my own plug wires for my twin plug motor project. However I can not figure out how the actual wire is supposed to connect to these, Inside the boot is a metal piece that has a hole in the middle, the hole is to big for the conductor, and there is no way to put the wire into the boot that will not have the wire just fall out. Can anyone who has made up their own wires shed some light on this for me.

911.609.310 from PP at $2.75 each.
But the Cripping tool that you need is $325 so getting a set done from some Pelican would be cheaper.

i found some threads where folks have made their own crimping tools. And did finally find a place where the ends could be procured, so i ordered 10 from them (allowing for some "losses" due to crimping tool fabrication.
