My personal preference is to always use A/Delco plugs in GM vehicles....no need for anything fancy, like platinum, or anything like that. Unless you are heavily modifying the engine, there's absolutely no advantage in using anything other than what the factory engineers called for.
Thass my story, and I'm stickin wid it....

The only "hard" one to get to on my '85 is the pass side rear....it's a little sneaky.

I have something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Wellforce-Professional-Sidewinder-wrench-Knurled/dp/B006N0Z8GM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1414842781&sr=8-1&keywords=sidewinder+ratchet
I have yet to try it on the Vette but I bought it to use on my old T-Bird. It had one plug that was impossible to get to with a ratchet. This lets you spin the socket using the T-Handle instead of swinging the whole wrench. I'm also planning on doing the plugs soon in my 86 and already know where my tool is, in case needed.
