99 f250 7.3 diesel

Ok guys, what's the best brand/style of glow plugs for the 7.3 diesel. Is one brand hotter? Any input?

No real high performance units here. They all get hot enough to do the job.

X2 what Pikachu said. Others have been known to swell which means trouble removing, up to and including head removal. OEM work fine
