I knew you'd like that. ;)

I run nothing but NGK's these days. They are pretty much the last man standing as far as quality control in plugs goes these days IMO. I run them in all 4 gas Benz's I own. (Thats 28 plugs.) Both Chevys in the Trojan have them. (16 more) For a total of 44 happy NGK's in four V-8's and two I-6's.

Some years ago I would have likely slapped someone who said anything else besides Bosch in the MB's and AC's in the 305's. Now, after seeing so much poor quality control at both Bosch and AC, I just run NGK's. If you get the proper spec plug, it doesn't really matter who made it as long as it was made well. I don't trust anything other than NGK anymore, and I am a rice hater.
