I have a list of plugs here:

Generally, plugs are pretty simple things so I pick the ones that are in stock, I've run Champion, Autolite, and NGK equally well. I will note that the application guides for Corvairs were sometimes wrong way back when, so sometimes we'd get the wrong plugs. Nowadays the parts lookups seem pretty good. Generally on a stock engine you want to use what's recommended - the hotter or colder is to prevent fouling or detonation, but that's usually an issue with modified engines.
