In my 89 I run the AC Delco Rapid-fire.
Have used Bosh but seemed the power was down a little so I changed back. Don't get me wrong the Bosh plugs idled better but it just seemed they weren't hot enough to make a complete burn when I floored it.

Lets talk about Bosch for a minute.
If you look under the hood of your c4 you will see a smattering of OEM Bosch parts, considering Bosch plugs is not a sin from a purists' point of view, therefore. They are German, which for many years has stood for good engineering. There is some truth to this I hate to admit. If you like the Splitfires, and I have used them in many applications, then you will love the Bosch p4s'. Their spark arc is even greater being split between 4 contacts. Besides Bosch owns splitfire anyway. As far as I am concerned their are only 2 ways to go OEM AC Delco or Bosch p4. If you have any issues with them you can try some Accel goodies on you ditributor, even if it is just the cap, as well as some good performance oriented wires. Just doing the plugs is never enough to really notice anything anyway. You can't really expect to see performance GAINS from a simple plug upgrade. You know you have good plugs when you don't know they are there, meaning there is no noticeable performance lag. When your engine is running smoothly and is responsive and you are getting gas mileage the manufacturer says you should, then, your plugs are doing their job.
