Recommended Posts

Alright, well, I guess I only check in when I NEED something, so here it goes... What recommendations do yall have as far as copper vs iridium vs titanium spark plugs? I wouldnt mind some extra performance, but I'm not trying to spend over 10dls a plug, you know? Also, Im wanting to look into a set of wires. I only drive to work and back, so Im not looking to spend for the high end performance parts. Any and all info will be apprecieated. Thanks in advance. Zeke.

AC Delco Iridium plugs. AC Delco wires. You can find good prices on Ebay for these parts if you're not pleased with the prices you find around you. If you want more performance, get a Black Bear tune. :jester: There's an in person tune in north FT. W. weekend of Sept. 4th. Search "Black Bear" on this site. you'll have plenty of reading that will answer most if not all questions about tunes.

I've been looking into the ac delco rapidfire platinum plugs. According to the delco website, I can gap them to .045 (all other plugs for my truck are .035). I'm going to write them and verify that this is true. If it is, though, more gap means more exposure, so slightly more power (probably not enough to feel).

I contacted an ac delco representative and he assured me that .045 was correct for the rapidfire plug. If you do go with the rapidfires, or any plug for that matter, I would still go onto their website to see what they recommend for a gap for your truck.

Chris - I would keep your gaps at .035 on your 95. I took mine down from .045 to .035 in the Tahoe, smoothed out the idle. The ignition on the TBI isn't particularly strong. The smaller gaps will take quite a load off from it. And I just put in the old fashion CR43TS plugs. 2 bucks apiece.
