Default Sure this has been asked...

but I'll bring it up anyway. I did a search and couldn't find much. It seems the majority of people in the LS community run NGK spark plugs...but why? Can anyone give me some good info? Thanks.

I did because everybody said to, so i figured they would be the best bet, and they are cheap anyway. I have the TR55's IIRC

In general, NGK's have proven time and time again to be of very good quality with a wide selection in heat ranges.

It is because of this that they are very popular among tuners of multiple different makes and models of vehicles.

$2 compared to $10 per plug

at that cost i dont even have to worry about trying to squeeze 50K or more miles out of them.
i can change them ever 10 or 20K and still be richer

I used them in a traditional Pontiac V8. Worked well where other plugs didn't including Bosch platinum and rapidfire plugs. Also, the price is excellent!

I use Vpower plugs in mine, I had a choice of Vpower or the NGK's but people were having trouble with them at the time so I just went with the vpowers
