96 4.9 spark plug type

I heard about Bosch 4 prong plug but I honestly don't know anything about them. Trying to find out if putting them in a 4.9 is a good idea.

Waste of money no matter what engine... Good quality coppers (motorcraft) are the way to go...

Tried platinum plugs in my 4.9L and it wasn't 2 days later I was back at autozone buying coppers.

Motorcraft coppers definitely will not do you wrong.
