there are at least 3 kinds of spark plug wire.  Resistance wire, as
described below, metalic core wire (with stainless or copper core) and
sheilded wire.  I don't see why you can't use solid core spark plug wire -
it's commonly sold for use on marine and farm engines, it isn't used much on
cars any more because it doesn't suppress radio interference.
