Just picked up a 98 cobra, having some misfire issues... it has ford racing plug wires on it, who knows how old, have heard some complaints about them.... Doesn't seem like there's a whole lot of options for alternatives tho? Basically just MSD or small core NGKs (8mm). What does everyone use?

I run Taylor wires.
The old school FRPP wires were great, but over the last 10 years or so they have been crap quality.
I wouldn't install MSD either if it were me

OEM Motorcraft works fine on my 97 Cobra and solved my misfire issue.

I have the best luck with over the counter motorcraft wires. Lots of parts store ones made the radio buzz, and also seem go bad again after a couple thousand miles
