MSD Makes decent wires, but I'm partial to MOROSO. Thet may be long due to the routing. I know the ones in my 90 GMC were real long.
Easy way to remember your firing order (I've remembered it ever since I heard this)
Start with 18, double it, 36, double that, 72. All you need to remember really is 18, the rest will just stick in your brain. Now that you've got the three pairs, 4 and five in "order", 4 is between 18 and 36, and 5 is between 36 and 72.

I learned it when the first small block intake I had (cast iron) had it written on it.

Also don't forget that the firing order is in a clockwise direction on the cap.

60 is too much for used plug wires. You can get a good set of brand new Taylors or Moroso for that.
I would not pay more than $20 for used MSD wire set. Even then I would check resistance and they better look brand new.
MSD or anyone else i know of does not make 11MM wire. 8 MM or 8.5 MM is pretty much the standard in performance wire.
As said above. The firing order is cast into the top of the intake manifold. It is a string of numbers right under the words: Firing Order

You do have the correct ignition system to run such a large wire right?
