Default Spark plugs, Distributor Cap, Wires...

I'm looking through all the brands of parts and I know not to buy autolight, but what do you guys go with? I saw AC Delco and figured that'd be a good way to go, but I wanted to see what the general consensus was. Also, what do you aim to spend when getting these parts? (besides as little as possible) Thanks

If it's electrical or fuel pump - AC/Delco period.

Are NGK and AC Delco about the same in quality? Or is one better than the other? I don't really know the difference between good and crap besides going off of prices and your guys' posts. Thanks!

I went to AC Delco and asked for stock plugs and the gave me "NGK Platinum" plugs, so I reckon if AC Delco sells em, they are pretty much stock (so good).

Don't go with any "High Performance" or "Racing" plugs or wires. People get burnt on those like crazy.

Yeah AC Delco parts are actually great. I also got my distributor cap and spark plugs from them. Never got problem from them. Your in the right path mate.
