bosh platinums all the way bosh guarentees these plugs to last 100,000 miles and when you consider what a pain it is to get at some of those plugs well... you can figure it out from there.

Speaking of, while pulling out spark plugs on my 87 BII 2.9L, the first one I went to pull broke in two when I started loosening it... so... I ended up going to the parts store and getting a set of Autolite double platinums. So far, it seems to be acting a LOT better than it was before... from the looks of things, the Champions that were in it had been in there long enough for rust to develop on the exposed hex head... but other than that, they all looked 'normal' and probably only needed some cleaning and re-gapping. Ah, well. At least I know now I have new decent plugs in there.
Personally, I use what 'fits best'... i.e., Autolite for Fords, Bosch/NGK for imports, etc., etc., etc., .... but, all-around best plug for the money are the Bosch's IMHO.
