Anti-seize is ok. Personally i never use the stuff. After the spark plug is snug, i just give it about a half turn with the ratchet, and thats it. I never have problems getting my plugs out.

I find with anti seize, that you can easily over tighten the plugs, almost like if you put a lube on the threads.

I guess it doesn't really matter though, if you know how to feel out what your torquing them down to.

 

ok i would start a new thread or search but im lazy and i just want to ask in this thread

i have 23,400 miles and I just bought this truck, im ordering FIPK CAI and installing that next week but i wanted to change the plugs when i did this

what are the best plugs for performace=

 

A little bit of Nickel Anti-Seize on the threads goes a long way. When it comes to aluminum heads and spark plugs I always insist on a torque wrench. Back off the torque 10-15 percent of the manufactures spec and you'll be OK.

Lastly, dielectric grease on the boots.

 

Not sure they are the best, but I plan on installing NGK Iridium plugs next month.
