Personally,I would never spend that on those parts,simply because $30-$50 would do the same job.

really...spark is spark, but if you feel obligated to spend that kind of money on ignition, then get this.

...and use ngk v-power plugs...like $1.89 each and they are perfect.

i just used the lifetime wires at the local parts store for about $39.
i used the autolite 3923 when because i had a pinging problem.. they've been fine and they're cheap.

Now that looks more like what I would pay, these engines just don't need more than that.

I think that ill just go with this because its way cheaper and the general consensus is that it wont make a difference

Brass usually doesn't corrode like aluminum does, hence why most aftermarket caps are of the brass variety.
