NGK is one of the best IMO. not sure if they still do, but when I was at GM, the ACdelco plugs (OE) were made by NGK. They were OE on Caddys, c6Z06 etc.
I would try to do some research (contact previous owner) to find out the combo, or tear it apart and see whats inside.
otherwise I would take your car to a competetive track event (dont race) and find the tech crew and ask about paying to use one of their testing devices that can determice CI and compression. I forget what the tool is called. It would probably only be at a professional sanctioned race. Not sure if they would let you use it, but its worth a shot.

They actually have a tool that can determine your displacement without tearing it apart? I want one! Just got the call from the tuner. Said he changed the plugs and runs great now. Still only 500 at the wheels. But it is only a million degrees outside today. Gonna pick it up in the morning and see how it compares.

Well I picked up my car yesterday and wow! That thing flat out gets it now! So I would say my original dyno was a waste of money. But damn you couldn't wipe the smile off my face. Its like a 2 stroke dirt bike now. He got 504 at the wheels in 108° temps. Said iat was at 150 and thats all he wanted to push it.

Ya I think the not knowing is the worst part. Especially for a car guy. My next investment will be a good set of tires, gonna def need em. After that should be good for a bit.
