from what the OP has presently in his engine, delco r43ts, indicates an iron head L98. NGK UR4 6630's if i'm not mistaken, are for aluminum head cars. my 2-cents - NGK 3547 #UR5GP plugs, about 2.20 each...

I have AC Delco in there right now but have used NGK on many, many cars. I don't know what they do at NGK but they really seem to make superior spark plugs.

The plug I listed is for an IRON head L98. Your information is mistaken.
