Default Which spark plug is best

I am replacing all of my spark plug on my 1992 corvette. So I was wondering which spark plug is best(recommended)?

On no, not another "which oil to use", "Which spark plug wire to use", "Which grade gasoline to use" thread!

But to answer your questions, just stick with AC Delco Rapid Fire plugs with the OEM heat range for your car.

Oh YES!!! Gotta get the whole gang in here...

Most importantly, Each mfgr has a little bit different heat range variation.
Which is why I stick to US mfgrs.
AC will give the best overall.

All the special "this and that" plugs just aren't going to make more HP.
You'll get more from a NOS sticker...
