Are the plugs the same for the 97 5.7 and the 02 5.3? I just bought brand new AC delco plugs for my old motor and would like to reuse them if possible.

Tired ol' 5.7, 5.3 swap in progressHandle every stressful situation like a dog.If you can't eat it or hump it.Piss on it and walk away.
I really think NOT.
I can check in the AM if no one smarter than me already answers.
What are they, $1.59 each? Why not replace them with new?

I know it seems crappy, but Any time you do work like that, you should throw in fresh plugs. And do it very carefully. If you put a bad plug in, or you accidentally put a tiny crack in one, You will be chasing problems trieng to figure out whats wrong.
So true, more misses in an engine can be attributed to a cracked porcelain than anything else. Be careful installing your new plugs.

I dont know everyone says get the ngk an gap them to 28. I wanna try some true ac delcos though.
The ACD iridium 41-985's are pretty good (gap at 0.040) but they're also high....$8.00 each list.
