Spark Plugs

Has any used Bosch 2 (double platinum) or Bosch 4 spark plugs?

I have used them in my 360. They seem to work alright. I like that they dont wear down like standard plugs.

Thanks Rusty. I got my heads back yesterday and going to start putting her all back together today. Just wanting to put some more fire in there with the heads being ported now.

Unfortunately the only thing that will help it last is the platinum electrode. The 2,3,4 grounds will help some, but it only fires on ONE anyway. Never really had a problem with that part, only the electrode.

I'd probably save the extra cash and get regular platinum plugs, and put the extra cash in the gas tank..

Come to think of it, I think I have the regular platinum plugs in there.

FWIW, my new 390 is getting NGK V-power plugs. I've heard nothing but good about them.

I bought the Bosch Platinum plugs, single electrode. If I could have found some V type I probably would have bought them but they are over $5 a piece. Oh my God.
