Which sparkplugs?

Puttin' the new headers on and figured, why not put new plugs in as well.....should I just stick with stock? I have a Callaway honker, longtubes and Corsa. It will get a dyno tune when finished......

A large choice of the C5'ers is to get the new AC Delco Iridium plugs.

I went with NGK TR-55ix Iridiums. A little expensive but I think they are probably the best plugs for the price.

At Xtreme Motorsports in Tempe (I partner with them) - we use NGK TR55's for naturally aspirated mostly stock cars. We use NGK TR6's for the high performance and forced induction cars.

We also highly recommend the GM Hot Wires in all applications.
