    Welcome to GPF!

    Does that SE have the 3100 or the 3.8?

    Welcome man! Maintenance ain't too bad on these. It's just the first round of it that hurts, haha.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
