I know so many people that really do not know what plugs to use in the engine. I know the eco guys have been havin' fun finding out that the SRT-4's are the best so far. So what you guys think? List them all in one post. Every engine!
it would be nice

haha you're not going to get a sticky for spark plugs...just add them to the main sticky.
Anyway, for a 2.2L at least:
AC Delco R42LTS (1 step colder)
AC Delco R42LTSM (2 steps colder)

Why not? They have one for just fuel.
Then maybe you should go for 'ignition', not just spark plugs

No need to make an ignition post yet. Things need to be simple and to the point. So many people here are havin' missfire codes left and right. I just think it should be out in plain site to save people for having to search. Because if you look it doesn't really get you far. Thank you for you thought, but Spark Plug is fine if you ask me.
I would associate a misfire with plug gap moreso than type of plug...
I had mine gapped to stock specs and it misfired like crazy. It was much better around .030"-.035"
Also, a MSD DIS and MSD coil packs would be VERY helpful in jumping the gap with the higher pressures

Absolutely. 2-step colder plugs gapped at .030 is about essential for a decent amount of boost on an OHV

From what I've seen and read, the plugs with fancy names don't seem to perform, or they are impossible to gap correctly. Delcos work fine, and they're cheap

To my understanding GM does not list Rapidfires for the 2.4L. So I myself is kinda skeptical on using these plugs, more so since these plugs are made by inhouse GM/Delco, which all makes me believe they are not for us.

Then I stand corrected.
Last time I checked was around in March of this year so either it was recently updated or my source missed it.
Thanks
