Default Best place to buy OEM tune up items??

Newbie here! I've searched for this but most of the 5 year old links I've found no longer work. Where do you guys purchase replacements for the filters and/or sensors that need to be replaced every so often? Any help would be appreciated!!

A lot of your basic OEM spec replacement filters and plugs/wires kind of stuff can just simply be picked up at your local auto parts store. But, what exactly are you looking for? That would help if you mentioned that.

I actually ended up finding most of what I needed on Amazon.com. I was just curious if there was a particular place (maybe even an LS1tech vendor) that offered a lot of your standard maintenance related stuff. Examples: Spark plugs/wires, fuel/oil filters, etc. There are actually a few different links to where to find a number of these things in older threads, but nearly all of the links are dead. Even the stickies have a ton of broken links. Oh well - such is the life when you a buy a ten year old car, I suppose! Thanks for your response, TransAmWS.6.

rockauto.com has cheap stuff too........

Besides sensors that might be bad.......there's not much to a tune up on these cars. It costs like $50.00 in parts. (Spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, can of SeaFoam) Thats a tune up.
New plug wires if needed are $36.00 at Advance Auto.
Oil change....depends on the oil.

Labor...do it all yourself in 2-3 hours.
