Accel or AC delco

Debating on which cap and rotor to get today. No seems to have a reasonable price on wires though. AC delco set was 80.99...

The accel to ac delco is a minimal price difference.

Stick with the AC Delco! These trucks are very picky about certain things and this is one of them. They are oe replacments and you shouldn't have any issues with them in the long run

Ive never had any issues with any caps/rotors. As long as they have brass tips and not aluminum they usually work for me.

I know the accel has brass, but I'm not sure on the ac delco

Do you guys run platinum or double? I usually only put double platinum or iridium in newer cars.

If you decide to go with copper,id recommend trying the ngk v powers. Ive been using them in all my vehicles with great results. ac delco is just as good.
