A/C Delco plugs.... I use Accel "universal" spiral core wires, cut and crimp yourself. Really, any wire that isn't el-cheapo, as in uses the graphite impregnated core, would be good.

Mines an 87-by your profile you have an 86-do you have the aluminum heads or cast-it makes a difference as far as part numbers and style of plugs. I like the ACDelcos 61-429s for mine, the owners manual for an 87 called out AC type FR3CLS-same plug-new number . I just run OEM plug wires-works for me.You can also go to ACDelcos web site. If I ran a different plug I'd go with the NGKs-I'm just a ACDelco guy.
