What spark plug brand did you choose and why? this is a poll for people who really dont know about cars so they know what brand of plugs are used, so they can decide what to go with.

I choose AC-Delco because its made by General Motors. Also thats the only kind of sparkplugs used in all my fathers and mothers vehicles as long as I can remember.

Okay...general motors, huh? I run motorcraft since I worked at Ford at the time and original plug works the best when the engine is pretty much stock.

I put bosch platinums x4 in my stang and I really like the performance I'm getting out of them. It just seems like the car is "snappier" in the throttle
