I would stay OEM, especially when dealing with electrical and fuel components. By replacing with OEM parts, you can be assured that those items meet all the proper specs. for marine application. Brian Raymond

Once again The Boat Boy speaks the truth. Cheap spark plug wires may not have boots and insulation that will hold up under the extreme conditions that a marine engine is exposed to. Split boots or cracked insulation could allow arcing that could ignite gasoline fumes if you had a fuel leak. The distributor cap must seal tight against the distruibutor body to prevent arcing as well.
