Since you are so hardcore about it and don't want to take the advice of a couple of us that have been in this for a while, I have an idea..
Go to your local Dealership and ask them. Then go to the Ford Dealership to see what they put in the Cobra, Dodge for the Viper, then go to O'Rielly's and see what they say, then onto Auto Zone, Advance Auto, and then check with all of your local Automotive Shops and see what they all collectively say, then go from there.
Then if you get brave enough, google it and check Yahoo.

The reason I say this is cause you are going to get pretty much the same answer from us here.
