okay, i dont want to drive all the way to my mechanic (30 miles away) to buy spark plugs, and autozone said they dont carry them, and nopistons.com isn't sending me any with my wires.



any ideas where i can get some here in san antonio and have them by tomorrow?

If you have an O'reilly's there, they have them for less than $5 a piece.

i'm going to assume you know this already but you should be running NGK BUR7EQ leading and BUR9EQ trailing, since you're modded and you live in texas so you don't have to worry about cold starts, run 4 BUR9EQs.

What are the benefits/risks of running 4 9's?

Benefits : less pinging

no risks (i think)

Badness: foul out faster
