Hi Clipperlover 10-04

1.) Your Best Bet Is To Use Champion Plugs (Res. Style For Radio) Stay Away From Platinum Like Bosch They Are For Imports.
2.) Use A Good High Temp Silicone 7-8MM I Got Mine At Napa Auto Fit Really Well.
3.) Oil Is By Oil Pan Size 360 CI Uses 5 - 5.5 Qts 440 CI 6 Qts With Filter. ( Note 440 CI Uses Short Filter. K & N Is A Good Choice.  I Use 10/40 Wt Castro Para Syn, Sense Motor Has A Few Thousand Miles. Also If Your Weather Is Hot Or Cold You Can Also Use 10/30 Wt.
Note:  Also Do To Weight Of These Clippers, Should Change Oil & Filters 3,000-4,000 Miles Sooner If You Do A lot Of Towing & Hard Hilly Driving. Also Check Air Filter At That Time. Keep Endine Clean ;D ;D

The Oil Stabilzer Is Your Choice, It Is A Good Cleaning Agent, But The New Oils Now It's Not Needed With SE CC Oils.
