Hey all,
One of my leads has crapped out on my falcon, (it runs aftermarket gas so I need to get it fixed - preferably with a good quality lead). Anyway a quick look on ebay and turns out I have a few options - brands include:

SS Inductions.
Eagle.
NGK
Top Gun

Has anyone had any experience with any of these, or know which brand is best? If they're all junk what brand should I look for and where can I grab it?

Thanks, Thomas.

Power: 148 rwkw

Location: Auckland
New Zealand

Am using Champion Steel Spiral-Core (8mm black) on the EF and Bosch Motorsport (8mm blue) on the AU. Good results with both, and both have long warranties (3 years, from memory). The Champion is very low impedance, so ideal for gas.

I have bought Champion at Repco and Bosch at Supercheap here in NZ, so I assume they stock them in Oz too.

Thanks for all the replies - decided on Bosch leads, as I can get them off one of my sources pretty cheaply.

Thanks, Thomas.
