Pretty sure all the PCV valves come from the same factory regardless of brand.

 

Wix filters are great.

 

And for spark plugs, AC Delco copper plugs gapped at 0.030"

????:shrug:???? I thought the gap for plugs on a GM V6 was either .060 or .065. What am I missing?

stock gap for a tgp is .045 i decided to gap mine at .035 just because on here i was being told .030 and in papers for a topgun chip my sister has it says .040 so i figured why not in between.

^ correct, the proper gap is .045, opening up the gap will improve low end power (now keep in mind that you probably can't notice this, but on a scope it would show up) closing the gap will improve power at the top end.

This is an *old school* trick to fine tune ones plug for the criteria that the engine is going to perform under.
