This is what i have used so far on my 1994 Firebird, just had a look into my old parts box. I really couldn´t tell any difference in power or fuel mileage, the platinums last longer, but yeah, that´s it.

While we're at the topic - anybody tried changing your spark plugs on a 3.8L engine? I recon I should check and most likely replace mine some time now ...

@1991Z28: No problem, you´re welcome.

@Garry:
I´ll do it probably this weekend on a friends camaro ('00, 3.8l) - i´ll let you know... :) It´s no fun on a 3.4 (still easy compared to a LT1, i guess), but with some extensions and joints it´s no real biggy - on the 3.8 at least all spark plugs on one side point into ONE direction ;)

I must be blind, but I can't even find the stupid spark plugs on the 'maro ... !? Can they be changed without tearing everything off???
