Default E3 spark plugs?

Are they going to release a plug for the 4.6 3v?

Just got done reading them and there seems to be mixed opinions about them like there are about throttle bodies(I like my BBK). If they do start to make them and I don't like them I've been warned.

No spark plug is going to "make" horsepower. All they do is provide a gap for a spark to jump and light the fire.

I've seen dyno results on Power Block that say otherwise. I rather put them in my car than Brisks or Champions(I've been wrenching on cars for 20+ years and Champions are barely good enough for my lawn mower). Anyway can anyone answer my original question?

Uggg neve rhad any luck with champions. Heard great things about Brisk, but when I tried them I had nothing but knocking. With through two sets and had the same problem. Called the company to make sure I was getting the right plug and they were baffled. Went back to the autolights and no issues.

There's a lot of us out here using the new Champions that would beg to differ with you - including me. I've been wrenching for 40+ yrs and I've put in a lot of Champion plugs without any problems. I've been running Champions in my '06GT for like 25K miles without the slightest problem.

Champion(Mopar) plugs in the past were only used on Chrysler vehicles, engines that ran rich and constantly fouled up plugs and lawn equipment. Maybe that has changed. Autolites were always the preferred plug with racers because the offered the coldest heat range. If anyone has an answer to my question and not just an opinion I'd appreciate it.
