Does that mean you read the :thumbdwn: feedback on E3 plugs? Too late to cancel the order?

Most here agree, stick with the time proven OEM Motorcraft or Autolite's. As for wires, hard to find bad ones. Ditto OEM.

Good to hear. Use Motorcraft SP432 or Autolite APP104 Double Platinum or XP104 Iridium. Very carefully check "pre-gapped" plugs
at .054 inches. Your call on wires, no measurable gain using aftermarket "performance" replacements on stock engines. Nothing worse than new wires being the wrong length, especially when they are too short. Also recommend coating the threads lightly using copper
or nickel anti seize and dielectric grease on the boots. Buy $1.49 pocket packs at the counter.
