    Platinum Plugs are in

    Just had my plugs changed at 36,000 and they put in Champion Platinum Plugs. Anyone else running these in there 5.7 and should there be any issues?

    Champion and Autolite are good replacement plugs, they'll last longer than your stock plugs.

    Just don't use nitrous with them. Irridium plugs and copper plugs are ok for nitrous, Platinum are NOT recommended.

    The purpose of platinum plug is to eliminate the gap growth that would occur to a conventional spark plug used in a late-model higher voltage ignition system.

    And to echo what GasGunR said: Not to use Platinum with Juice...

    I changed mine Saturday and went with the Champion Double Platinum because of the waste spark system. I see a little improvement in my acceleration.

    No worries there. No plans on running juice.

    I've got about 25K on the Bosch Plat 2's and they seem to be running a lot cleaner than the stockers did.
