spark plugs

What spark plug would you recommend for a 13B? (carbed) I was using autolite but after 5,000 miles my car misses even worse than usual, any suggestion?

Autolite plugs are junk. Use something actually made for the rotary like NGK or Denso. Both have been used as original equipment on rotary motors.
