autolite 3923s, use copper not platinum. and anything with the 2 or +4 are ****...

champion and ngk are also good brands, just use copper none of that other expensive ****. You should only have to spend maybe at most 15$ for plugs, anything in the 30$+ is ridiculous.

I yeah i forgot to mention, if you do decide to go with Autolite 3923s you will have to tell them you want Autolite 3923s. They are NOT listed to work with the Dakotas, they are manily used in Hondas and 4cyl motors, they are a tad shorter then stock and run 1 degree cooler. Good for many things.

So just say "i need 8 autolite 3923s" dont say you want them for a dakota, they will try to sell you some other bullcrap.
