spark plugs

If you have a stock coil don't get the platinums. Harder to send the spark through platinum. If you have a "hot" coil then they would be ok. I'd stick with the standard Ford Motorcraft spark plugs. Of course I am a Ford Partsman..........................
Edit:
If any one wants the Ford Motorcraft spark plug part numbers for their application let me know.
Examples:
Big Plug.......(13/16" socket).........Usually standard heat range......suppressor plug for no radio noise.......BSF42C
big plug..........same.................... One heat range colder.............................same........... .....................BSF32C
Peanut plug..(5/8" socket)............usually standard heat range.....................same.................... ............ASF42C
Peanut plug..........same................One heat range colder.............................same........... .....................ASF32C

You are wasting your money on any of this hi-tech aftermarket crap. The opening of the points creates an electrical disaster in the secondary circuit. Something like 20,000 volts which causes the plug arc. The wire has a resistance of about 1,000 ohms. The plug electrode has a resistance of .01 ohm. Once the arc initiates, the cylinder fires.
