Please list them , both the the cars need new plugs in them. My dad tried to buy some Bosch plugs today but I told him no since I havent heard good things about Bosch products. I just want some opinions on what I should pick up. Wires will be replaced with new ACDelco wires.

Both of your cars are N/A so NGK or AC Delco (made by NGK) of stock heat range gapped at .060 would be best.

Bosch and the 3800 are not the best of friends.

I'll echo the NGK or AC Delco.

I have Champion plugs in mine at the mo and it runs fine on them. I might use NGK next time though if that'* the general consensus.

I would say TR-55s as well. They are cheap, they are good quality, and seem to run a bit peppier than the Bosch plugs i had previously.

NGK ALL THE WAY!
