(Edit here in italics)As long as one is not doing a concours restoration and striving for an exact replica of the originals, there's nothing magic or special about Packard V8 spark plug wire sets, other than they're not listed in the catalogs. I've successfully used wire sets cataloged for big block Chevy 454", Ford 390", Cadillac 390" and several other old big block V8s. The bright orange Motorcraft sets I bought on a closeout did lend some color to otherwise drab engine compartments. I may have one of those left if you want it.
