what is the best spark plugs i should put in my 1996 svx

NGKs are very well liked. Best you can afford as they're not the easiest to put in. Not hard, just a little bit of time.

NGK Iridium.
And you can install the in NINE MINUTES!





OK, inside joke.
Expect two hours for 1-5, and 2 hours for #6, the first time.
YMMV

I still cannot grasp what makes the #6 so hard. I had no trouble pulling the coil up and out of the way, and the chassis hole makes pulling the actual plug a breeze.

I actually put off doing my plugs for an extra 6 weeks from fear of the driver side bank, and afterwards it was like "that was it?".

Not saying its easy easy, but I never understood the trouble people have with it.

After a problem with the #6 cylinder on the first engine in my Claret,
I got down to about 10 minutes for that plug after repetedly changing that oil fowling plug.
Practice helps speed.

The hardest part of changing the plugs in mine was getting the ##2@@$% boot from the coil off the plug.The thing was hard as a rock and I used a pick to get the pieces out. That was 20 min. alone. The rest was a snap.First time maybe one hour+/- I bought a couple of boots for spares.
