Someone can recommend a set of black wires for a 413 B engine in a 61?  but need to be long enough, so i can use all the wire brackets.
Atlas offer a set but cost around $70
I have to said that Mallory 774 are

Unless you need to be absolutely original, I get my plug wires at O'Reilly, Napa, or somewhere similar. They stock both copper wires, for the older stuff, and resister wires for later engines, all at reasonable prices.

Autolite wires are black and readily available at Advance, Oreilly, Auto zone. Advance carries a line called Xact, they are black too.

I think the best reproductions are from LectricLimited.com. They offer reproductions for our cars and can even be date coded. Cost is about the same as Atlas, but the LectricLimited are closer to original.

Autozone only sells MSD and Accel, O'relly sell only BWD, Advance: MSD, Accel, Xact (which is pretty cheap in price) and autolite. all 7mm but i think the original was 8mm. LectricLimited.com seem like the wires are better but price at $70 are for restoration quality.

Are you wanting the original look or just something to spark it? You could always go with a set for a 440, I know my store carries them in the Autolites, at most it would be an over night wait to get them from the warehouse.

I bought a set of the NAPA wires for my 361. I would think this should be the same set for the 413. They come with the straight boots on the plug ends and you have to crimp the distributor ends on so you can cut the wires to length. Actually, I only had to cut two wires. The other 6 were the perfect length already.

The wires are more of a dark blue, but I kind of like the look. They worked out great so far.
