Gentlemen:

I plan to do a spring tune up on my new (to me) 1988 Lucas equipped 5.3 engine. I am looking for specific recommendations as to brand names and sources for buying the following:

Cap, Rotor, Wires, Plugs.

Thanks in advance.

Use Lucas cap and rotor. I use OE Rists plug wires but some use high-performance silcone plug wires (such as MagnaCore) to better cope with the engine heat

I use NGK plugs...can't remember the exact ones...something like BP7ESxxx?

I usually buy from Coventry West (800 331 2193) but there are many other good ones out there
