Sounds good. I always had better MPG with the Motorcraft Copper myself

5.0Flareside · Feb 1, 2012

i run NGK's in everything now..

used to run motorcraft coppers but after research and experience, the NGK V-powers have been able to tremendously out-perform the motorcrafts...

I used to run nothing but v powers in my flare....I won't ever run another plug. They treated me very well. Bump your timing while you're there...

Just the coil added MPG. I keep records . I swapped new Oem in for 2 weeks to check. I have had 200000 miles on them. Ask any electronic guru to test outputs for you.

SuperCab · Feb 2, 2012

You have got to be the only person I know that hasn't had bad luck with NGK plugs... I always use ACDelco in the GMs... Don't remember whats in the F250... been a while since I put plugs in it...

5.0Flareside · Feb 2, 2012

Junior here hasnt and a TON of mustang guys around this area use NGK's for there 5.0's...

O'Rattlecan · Feb 2, 2012

Well, how does it run? I've had nothing but bad luck when I stray from Motorcraft.

Ryan

5.0Flareside · Feb 2, 2012

it runs GREAT!!

i actually ended up getting motorcrafts. only cause the NGK V-Powers were out of stock..

When are you going to route the plug wires so they don't look like a blind person installed them? smilietease
