for plugs and wires, a member on here sells msd wires with ngk tr55's or tr5's for a good deal. user name is "blanco ss" i believe. just specify that your wires need to be cut to fit an lt1
oil...most prefer mobil 1, german castrol, royal purple and high priced synthetics. 10w30 or 5w30 is often use for ls1's, not sure about lt1's

Actual capacity is 5.5 quarts for the engine.
I usually save the leftover 1/2 quart, then add it when needed.
I plan on going to the larger PF61 filter next time, so I'm just going to add all six qts at once.
