The stock spark plug wires were originally made by Nippondenso (DENSO). They are now made by Prestolite.

The stock sparkplugs are either Nippondenso or NGK (depending on your area/emissions).

As far as buying aftermarkt -- buy NGK V-Power ZFR6F-11. You can get a 4-pack at Schucks/Checker/Kragen for about $8.00. Gap at .044mm and be happy. For wires, buy just the standard NGK wires.

or you can go buy some good plug wires made by MSD. theyll be your best bet. they work great and you can get em in bigger sizes... but for bigger sizes you should get a new distributor... but for now id go with Eran unless you wanna spend some money which in that case go MSD.

Magnecor is the best and doesn't cost much more than NGK. You never have to replace the wires again. Have been running them daily for 4 years now.

Don't believe the gimmicks.

Shut up. Please.

MSD plug wires will not net you any performance gains over stock or standard NGK. You might as well light your money on fire and then **** on it.
