Which plugs for 2.9?

Just curious if anyone has had success with split fires or platinum plugs? Whats the best one to run?

I personally run Autolites in mine. I believe I have Double or Single Platinums in there now, but I wouldn't go anything past that (Splitfire design or multiple-electrode)... doesn't seem to have any purpose, other than wasting money. Some people swear by the Splitfires, etc., though.

Just use the motorcrafts or autolites. No need for splitfires because remember a spark can only jump one path and that is the path of least resistance. thats why all the makers of splitfire plugs got sued by the FEDS about 4 years ago. You can read about it if you google it.
