QuoteI think I got a set at the shop, let me know if you need them. Autolites do not work very well in GM products. I think it's got something to do with Ford. Motorcraft plugs are made by autolite, anybody see where I'm going with this
Nah no thanks, I very much appreciate the offer though! I already placed an order online to have them in 3 weeks...  lol 
As for the brand matching car manufactures, I do agree with that although recently things are changing apparently and stuff seems to interchange to a more vast selection of makes/models.

I'm currently running Autolite 103's in my TGP, they work just fine and have been in the car for a few months and a couple hundred miles. As far as changing plugs at every oil change, who told you that bs? I'm assuming your read that on ClubGP. If so, ignore that crap, something is wrong with their tuning or something else if they're eating up plugs that quickly. The standard copper core plugs are fine for 30K mile intervals. I know people that run them a lot longer than that though. By the way, do you have any Advance Auto chains nearby, they stock the original AC Delco plugs. Autozone doesn't seem to carry them anymore without having to order them.

PS: I know a few local Grand National owners that run 103's and are clicking off low-mid 10 second passes at the dragstrip.

Life saver! 
"something is wrong with their tuning or something else if they're eating up plugs that quickly."
That's what I figured!  I'll give them a shot.  I do have an advance not tooo far away, but there hours are like bankers hours around here.



Thanks again!

 :thumb: Oh yeah, if you ever need any more Autolites and have a Walmart close by, they usually have them cheaper than any part store does(~$1.15-$1.20 per plug). A lot of the Walmart stores discontinued them a while back to make shelf space for more popular Autolites, so it's kinda hit or miss depending on the store you go to. I have two super walmarts in my area(located 5 minutes apart :laugh:). One of them stocks 103's, the other one doesn't.
