I think this is one of those things that gets more press than it deserves.

There is a Ford Tech Service Bulletin from the 1960's that says if the customer is complaining of misfire at idle to seperate the #7 and #8 plug wires to see if it is an inductive cross fire caused by #8 plug picking up stray electro motive force from the nearby #7 wire which fires a few degrees earlier.

With a set of modern high performance plug wires it should not be a concern. If you are having problems with misfire by all means check it out by moving the #8 wire away from the others.
