Do You just ask for autolite 25's at the parts counter? Will they Know what I am talking about? Most of the guys at Orielly's don't know crap unless it tells them it on there computer!

Where do you get autolites #24, this website suggest them, I think I got #25 when I did my GT, thinking about doing my notch. Also they suggest .052, did that in my GT as well, I hear .046-.052 all the time. Suggestions, not trying to steal this thread, but expanding the questions and knowledge of myself, the OP, and others.

just tell'em you need spark plugs for your make/model/year. when they ask what kind, i say "the regular autolite 25" autolite resistor 25 i think is what they're officially called, non-platinum
