Spark plugs, wires, and coils

[TimMcCallum]

So right now I have the chance to buy ZZP big red spark plugs for very very cheap. Is it worth it? Ive heard they have problems from the gen 2 wires but not the gen 3? How do I tell the difference? They all look to be very new. Also, I can get aftermarket coils with them for alittle extra. They look similar to stock but not identical. Could someone post pics of what diff coils look like?
Also, what is the best spark plugs for a l26 lightly modded.

All the aftermarket "similar to stock" coils I have seen do not have the cylinder numbers on them.

[TimMcCallum]

Yea they dont have the numbers

[Russosaur]

Stick with stock coils period.

Can stock coils be painted?

[Russosaur]

I don't see why not but let somone else who knows about that stuff chime in. Also how cheap are the wires? And iridium plugs iirc, when I do mine im get XP606's no need for colder I don't think especially when N/A.

With paint

Whatever you do, know that if you get MSD coils, they typically break down and start causing higher rpm misfires within a month to a year of being new. Stock or parts store cheap replacements will treat you better.

Wires.. TMK there is no way to tell which ZZP wires were bad. Honestly.. I wouldn't take the chance on them. Plus there's no benefit to them. The only time to use them is when you are highly modded and need extra insulation to jamb them under a snout or something.

Just talked to zzp. The gen 3 are the good ones. The gen 3 wires have 10.5 on the wire in white. The older gen 2 which are garbage didnt have this. Im paying 20 bucks for them. Sound fair?

[Russosaur]

Might as well and if those fail get the lifetime warranty parts store

Never understood the whole performance wire thing. I just stick with my $40 ac delco from the parts store and call it a day.

[Russosaur]

But thicker wires gain easily 50hp

For lightly modded I would stick with stock coils, stock wires and OEM pulgs. You won't notice much of a performance gain.
