89 Tune up...
I need to replace cap, rotor and plug wires on my stock 89 automatic. I will probably have a vendor bring the items to Bloomington for pick up there. Can I please have recommendations on what brands to buy and from which vendor. I'll pick up new plugs as well, probably the same plugs the car originally came with.... AC R43CTS....thanks for the help and advice.

I have a HyperTech Cap (from Summit) and currently have Moroso wires but I'm going to be switching. I'm running splitfire plugs.
My cap is the one on the top left. I have never had any problems with it.

Going stock can save you some effort. No need to replace holders, reroute, plus you get the stock appearance, if that suits you. Replaced my stock units at 70K when I redid the manifold gaskets on my 90. With stock, everything should fit.
