- Inner insulation of EPDM or silicone for dielectric strength against high-voltage current
- Stainless steel terminals for positive connections through the life of the set
- Cylinder lead identification tags, where possible, to make installation easier
- RFI suppression built into the spark plug and distributor connectors and metallic resistor boots
- Boots glued to the cable with a silicone sealer for a watertight seal
