Default What Plugs do you run?

Just wanted to see what everyone is using to burn the fuel. Post up what mods you have and what plugs you're using.

For my 68, I am running tr55 plugs, Silverado CAI, 3" exhaust out through Magnaflow mufflers, Howell Harness and tune.

For the SS, I have no idea what plugs (same from when I bought it), SLP lid, Magnaflow cats, fake flowmaster, CME, and !AIR next week.

on a near stock or bolt-on car, TR55 is all you need.

You guys should really do some research on E3's. They are the best plug on the market right now. They researched it at the University of Michigan. The burn starts sooner, and is more complete. They increase power and efficiency.

I have them in my DD, and for my LS1. I noticed my DD running better after installing them. I think they are like 6 buck a plug.

That means the plugs probably needed replaced, and would have ran better with any kind of new plug.

Yeah, we had a guy at work talking about the E3's..

He finally got some -and then installed them - and then quietly admitted it was a giant waste of money.
