The Champion part number will be listed on your underhood sticker. Should be RC12YC, but check anyway.

If you do a search for
Magnum Engine Sparkplug FAQ
there is a long listing of all the OEM plugs from various model years
plus nearly every aftermarket sparplug that will fit.

If you want colder heat range sparkplugs
1995 Dodge Stealth turbo V6 sparkplugs
are the vehicle to tell the auto parts counter guy
to find out what is available.

Autolights are popular as are NGK. Avoid Bosch platinums!

I tried a set of Autolites as they seem to be popular with MSD wires and I just didn't like them. It seemed like my truck had a slight miss to it until I put Champions back in with the same wires. I would just stick with them. I don't know how NGK's run in the Dodges but I like them in my bikes and Honda's. I like keeping the brand that comes stock in vehicles in them they seem to work best that way.
