Need to change Spark Plug Wires when changing Plugs? I have 32,000 miles on a '98z28. I don't know if the previous owner ever changed the sparkplugs or the wires...is it recommended that I change the sparkplug wires, too? They sure cost a lot! Thanks <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />

Re: Need to change Spark Plug Wires when changing Plugs? Stock plugs in the LS1 are rated to 100k miles.. but the way we drive em.. hehe ya know. I changed my plugs and wires at 33k miles... Ive seen a few webpages suggest replacing wires at 30k.. but if you are going to do plugs, i would highly recommend wires too.
