I ran FMS ones before they were FRPP and you can't go wrong with Autolite wires. I'd avoid Accell and the other seem expensive for your needs

I've used Accel Superstock 8mm wires for years on any vehicle that runs a Supercoil. I learned my lesson when I fried a store bought HT lead late one night, finding one end completely charred. At the very least, I run one as the king lead from the coil to the distributor as it gets hit with every spark.

But that said, my bump was getting harder to start, so I investigated and found this...

To be fair, it's been on the truck for a good few years and is ungodly long because I relocated the coil to the fender. It's been fine since I trimmed it and put a new terminal on it.
