Don't know guys. I've been building spark plug wires from scratch for 30 or 40 years. Never did have any problems. The proper tools and a little knowledge goes a long way.
They guy at NAPA has never heard of such a thing. All they have are pre-made sets.
The only make-it-yourself spark plug wire sets I've ever found are like the ones you get at TSC.
You get this incredibly stiff wire.
You get a bunch of flimsy copper pokey-things for the ends.
You get some hard plastic boots for the ends.

I would really love to know where you get the tools and materials to make your own. Not finding anything on google.
I buy the kits from either Tisco or A&I. Similar to what you find at TSC, but probably a little better quality. If I wanted, I could buy the bulk spark plug wire on a spool and then buy an assortment of terminals and boots, which is what we always used at the auto repair shops where I have worked.
