Just use what is recommended pretty much.

So full synth 5W30 or 5W40 - my preference is Penrite HPR5. Don't fall into the use heavy oil trap. 173,000 isn't that high anyway. My VXII was still using HPR5 up to and over 230,000. If you feel the urge maybe 10W40 but i'd really not go over that, So Penrite Racing 10.

Plugs, why are you changing? they are good for well over 100, 000k's The ones GM use (AC Delco) are well and truly good enough - these are available on eBay from dealers who sell online if you actually need them. I guess if you still have the originals in there maybe get a set, but it's not like the old days, these things are pre-gapped and last forever.

Hope that helps.
