spark plugs

i was just thinking.. what are the best spark plugs to use in an 83' ZXT? i put some platinums in last summer... but i don't remember what kind and left them at the pregap they were set at. car runs fine but are there any better options?

I suggest you buy a Haynes manual while you are at the parts store getting the plugs.

Paying the premium price for platinum plugs will give you no advantage on these cars. Get the cheap basic NGK spark plugs and you'll be fine.
