3.8L Spark Plugs
 
I just picked up a 98 camaro with 81k on it. The car is all original. What is my best choice of plugs for it?

NGK or Autolite plugs in the stock heat range.

AC Delco Iridium plugs are O.E. ( I know that suprised me as well when I went ot go buy them for my car) I have used Bosch +4's and they are ****, AC's will work just fine.

yesum sir! and its a 96!! 41-101. as stated in advance Auto Parts computer, they are O.E. I think they are saying that now becuase our cars tend to get a code pop up now and then, the imfamous random/multiple misfire code, I could only guess they are saying thats the O.E. now to prevent that from coming up. I would get it quite often with platinum plugs. the down side is they are 6.50 a pop, but compared to my bosch's, it was a little smoother at idle, and acceleration. Oh and I believe they discontinued the former part number for our spark plugs, and are directing us to these ones now for AC Delco
