[V8] spark plugs - recommendations? and Distributor rotor type?

[R Broberg]

Inexpensive Champions are trouble free for me.  200k miles experience on the
V8 without a foul or failure.  Bosch 4 electrode had very short life and
cost a lot more.

> I'm running Autolite 103 plugs on both my 1990 V8s.  Keith of
Audiconnection made this recommendation and they have proven to be
trouble-free.  The stock application plugs originally on one car fouled up
and made the car difficult to start.  The problem resolved with the 103
plugs.
