Post best spark plugs?

i have always trusted plain old autolites. your 5144's should run you $1.19 each. you can go to an online parts store, punch in your vehicle, and get a whole list of available plugs. i do not know if those super plugs are worth the price so i stick to standard plugs.

I would go Autolite. $10 per plug, you got to be kidding. I wonder what they want for a plug wire set.
