Bernd,

  What do you mean about the Bosche +4's? I've been running a set for about
four months now with no problems. I noticed a big improvement over the
champions that were in there. If there is a problem with them, I would sure
like to know about it.

        Plugs: Autolite, OEM, SplitFire, or whatever your heart desires.
The
        Borscht +4's don't seem to work so stay away from them. If you're
running
        an MSD, NO PLATINUM.

        Wires: 8mm (doesn't hurt anything) - Jacobs, SplitFire, Magnecore,
Taylor,
        MSD, or whatever your heart desires

        Air Filter: K&N (Either the Stock replacement or a QuickD Intake
System)

        PCV Valve: Clean it out...it should be fine. But for the $2.00 it
costs,
        get a new one.

        Lube, Oil, Filter: Lube all areas that require it, Oil Filter
(personal
        preference), Oil - Personal Preference but stick with 10w40 (or
around there)

        - Bernd
