If its a mostly stock 5.0 then you should just buy the standard AC Delco spark plugs...I have always been told those work the best and they run great in my car. If you have a heavily modded engine then I dont know which to use

just put autolites in it. hmm your running nitrous huh? 500 shot? 1000 shot? more you tell us, more we can help you, chances are though you are a standard compression with a 100-150 shot. you dont need to change the heat range.

Will those fit in my 351? I am throwing a 125 shot on there, do I even need to get different plugs?
