What are some good spark plugs?

I'm in the process of installing a set of Pacesetter LT's, when I was pulling my Macs off, i busted a plug or two, and need to replace them. They are NGK somethings. They are about a year old. Should I go ahead and get some new better ones or just replace the few I broke.

NGK Coppers = best conduction, cheap, but won't last as as long as the Plats or Irradiums.

I am about to install autolite 106's with my pacesetter header install and have a few buddies that have run them with great results.

I always like to run factory plugs, which are A/C Delco Plats.

The NGK TR55 is nice and in Autolite many find the 106 to be too hot and like the 104 better. With nitrous the NKG TR6 or Autolite 103.

Re: What are some good spark plugs?

I used Delco Plats (factory replacement), Champion Copper, NGK TR55 and they all ran exactly the same.
