Delco, Autolite, NGK. Just make sure to get the stock heat range and set it to the stock gap. Do NOT assume that plugs are pre-gapped correctly (if at all).

yeah, plugs dont come pregapped. regular wires are ok, though sometimes its cheaper or just as cheap to buy a set of Taylor wires as it is to buy a regular set from an auto parts store. i like autolite plugs, delco is good too.
