No, You should use the wires from the manufacturer of the distributor. Most wires that you buy are going to be solid core.
Most folks use the Bosch distributors. Like the 022, 031, 061, or the new re-manufactured RS00012 that is designed for the 912 engines and sold by Will at Classic and Speed Parts. These have the correct curve for the 912 engine. The 061 is a 031 that has a vacuum retarded system that can be removed by someone that knows how to repair distributors. The Bosch 050 and the 007 have been used by some as replacements. However, these distributors are really designed for the VW. The curves for not right for the 912 street engine. The 007 are used by some for their racing engines. It has a short curve for upper RPMs only. |
