    Based on the msd website you should have only:

    In a single 12 inch length of Super Conductor Wire there is only 40 - 50 ohms of resistance!

    http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Spark_Plug_Wires/Universal_Wire_Sets/Super_Conductor/31183_-_Black_Super_Conductor_8_Cyl_Multi-Angle-HEI,_Universal.aspx

    Set it to *lower* and see what the resistence is because 1.2 is in outter space!

     That is not the wire I have; I have the black "street fire" ones.  My meter does not have 50K setting; goes from 200 to 2000 to 20K to 200K.
    I tried it on 200 and it went to 190 for a moment then dropped to one.

    I would use the 20k setting it should be reading approx 1/2 on the scale , if it is that low then maybe you have solid core wires  :dunno:
    so yes drop to a lower setting to get a more accurate reading
