Hello everyone. I'm in the process of planning my tune up and fluid change and wanted to compile a list of the best fluids and the best parts I can get (reasonable priced that is) for a tune up and all fluids change.


Engine Oil-Mobil 1 5w-30? 10w-30?

Transmission oil-? Have no idea what to use
Transfer case oil? have no idea
Brake fluid-? no idea
Differencials-? no idea
Radiator Coolant---something already pre-mixed 50/50
Power Steering fluid-? Have no idea

Plugs-Bosche
Wires-? Bosche i guess
Cap-GM
Rotor-GM
Air Filter-Been using K&N
Fuel Filter-? Guessing Bosche or Fram
Oil Filter- ? K&N, Fram or Bosche
Accessory Belt-? GM
Brakes-? No idea
Radiator hoses-? GM

Any one got some suggestions? Specific weights or types would be appreciated with the fluids.

Thanks

Re: Fluid and Tune up List

For spark plugs I was gonna try next was a brand named: E3
Found them on summit racing:

Have never used them myself however I saw them tested on the show Muscle Car on spike. On the engine dyno the claimed a 5hp increase over the next best performing spark plug. Could have been a paid advertisement for all I know but I was thinking of trying them on my next tune up.

If your doing tranny fluid add a bottle of Lubegaurd, you might need to go to a tranny shop to find it or a race shop.

Try them if you like. I've talked to a couple of users who saw no apparent gain and switched back. Non SyTy though.
