Default What kind of spark plugs

I'm going for a Valve Job very soon and I thought I put new plugs in while the engine is out. Bosh is the usual choice, but I worked at a spark plug company some years ago and I know that the QC at Bosh is not so good.

Both Beru and Bosch seem to be popular amongst the late model p-car crowd. Seems as though of those two Bosch is preferred. That said, I have used Beru on many 993's and havent had a problem.

I just picked up a set of Bosch plugs from Steve Weiner. So I'd say, Bosch

I used Bosch based on Steve W's input... of course I picked up the Bosch after a dealer first delivered 12 Beru plugs... the Berus are still sitting in their boxes on my shelf, never used. Anyone want them? I'm interested in selling to make more room in my garage.
