I replaced 8 cops and used denso plugs. My cost on parts was $455, and I spent about 2hrs doing the work.

They do, but they are still using stock style boot/connectors and near equal voltage to stock. I think MSDs were slightly cheaper than motorcraft. I wanted to try granatelli's, but I had to solve a miss before I went to visit the factory reps.

Granatelli is using a solid connector and producing something to the effect of 60k volts. Supposedily 3 times stock out put.

On the spark plug note, I only have 2k on these denso iridums, but I am very happy. More pick up and go, and better fuel mileage. The old plugs only had 64K on them and were shot.
