Spark Plug suggestions.

Installed 68 289/302, in 65 F100 in mid 70's with Edlebrock Performer and Holley 4bl. Over these many years tuning the engine has not been an issue, however not sure the quality control with Auto-Lite plugs over past few years is up to par? I would like to replace the Auto-Lite asap for comparison and interested if member's would recommend an alternative?

Comments/Suggestions appreciated!!

Thank you appreciate the input. Online NAPA online store does not carry them, appears Summit does, expect will check out customer reviews and some cyber searching?
