Stick with the champions or I have heard autolite 3923's do good in our engines. Do NOT put anything like Bosch plat's in I couldn't keep my D running on them.

As far as wires and everything Go with OEM or MSD. Do not go cheap with these things and buy trim to fit cheapo crap name brand wires or you will be buying more soon.

Ya, those NGK V-Power look pretty nice. For new wires im thinking of getting MSD. Wat size like 8.5mm? I guess all V8 plugs are universal?

Well NGK V-Power it is. Are they copper? Buddy of mine says copper wear out faster? Ill get some new wires and cap and rotor? do they come as one or do you gotta buy the wires, cap and rotor all seperate?
