Re: oil and spark plug's - members liking ?

My tuner, who consults for several NASCAR teams, prefers NGK plugs over all other brands for street-driven Chevys. I am using UR5/2771's in my 1990 383 TBI with good results. AC Rapidfires and Autolites are also good.

I have been a Castrol guy for 40 years, and use Syntec 5W-30 in the truck. I have projected small-block Chevy life at 500,000 miles with this oil. Mobil 1 and Amsoil are considered the best by many people.

Having had excellent performance from K & N air filters, I use their 3002 oil filter. If you can get Wix filters locally (I can't) they have a great reputation. On my old BMWs I have had good luck with Purolators; I think they are the best under $5 oil filter. There seems to be a general consensus to avoid Fram.
