why in the dark do i have spark all over my engine comp from my plug wires

I hope i can figure out my problems soon. I hate being able to have more fun in a 3.8 T Bird LX with 200000mi on it my wifes car.Hers is wore out and runs 10X better then my SC
 
Actually that could be problems with the coil or problems with the plugs. What you are seeing is corona. Leakage of the high voltage D/C going through the plug wires. Corona usually appears along a resistance path, but the plug wires might be lighting up because the gap is too big on the spark plugs, or the coil pack is throwing out excess energy.
 
time for wires ,for sure ,if there's a light show
borg/warner select CH8651 ,40 - 50 bucks
cheers
