How many miles you got on this vehicle ?

Well, the best spark plugs are Iridiums but those will be rather expensive. I definately wouldn't put a platinum plug back in there though. Platinum is more of a "milegage" plug than performance.

For oil, go with something fully synthetic like Amsoil, Mobil 1, Royal Purple, or Redline. For oil filter, get a Amsoil, Mobil 1, or K&N Gold oil filter. Might want to look into getting a oil filter magnet as well.

Since you're throwing on the Steeda u/d pullies, might as well pull the power steering pulley and replace it for a Cobra R power steering pulley. That is, if you're willing to spend the money to buy one. You might also want to get a new belt while youre in there.

You might also want to change the coolant, transmission fluid, tranny filter, and rear differential fluid if they need changing.
