I've only had problems with 7mm wires and Pertronix canister coils. 8mm work fine, both Autozone and Carquest private label. I also have a set of Carquest 8mm on a stock GM HEI (20,000-30,000 volts). I'm sure your 8.5mm set will be just fine. If any of your customers run into problems with the Pertronix coil you sell, recommend larger wires to them.
