Hey Big D,   Learn to say BOSCH and nothing but BOSCH on ALL things Electrical.   Your Beast came from the Factory with W-8 Bosch plugs and wires. There a lot of good wires out there,but I like BOSCH. Some people like Platumummmmm plugs..   I don't.  Your call. Its your Coal Truck.
     I don't think Pep Boys and the like sell the Bosch W-8s .  Manley  does.

I'll second David's thought.
Bosch Super plugs, p/n W8AC.  Only.
Mainly Foreign sells them, most places just carry bosch platinum which I've not had good luck with in air-cooled engines.
No Platinum.
No Autolite.
No Champion.
No nothing else.
I've tried all the others, and always end up back at the same place.
