Spark Plug Rec 1983 2.8 HO Z (LH7)

[83ste]

I am looking for spark plug recommendations for an '83 2.8 HO Z (LH7) in a Pontiac STE. The car is stock. Platinum or Regular? Brands? I see some decent deals on Champion Plats and Regs.

i think youll be ok with the standard ol spark plug, i know they recommend platium plugs for waste spark ignitions but im guessing you have a distributor. Dont get sucked into the quadtruple 3000 plugs b/s

Stock Delco's are the ticket. AC Delco rapid fire plugs work well to. If you have a higher output coil you can gap them to .045 or buy 93 to 95 3.4L Camaro plugs and they should already be gapped to .045.

Is there a way to tell if I have the high output coil by looking at it? It is still the original OEM coil, so I don't know the type of coil this motor came with.

Its the standard coil then. A high output coil would be something like an MSD, Pertronix or Mallory coil
