As long as the plug reaches are the same they should work as they're both surface gaps.

You mean you are short on funds and will run the risk of an engine burn down because of the cost of a set of plugs? That does not make economic sense at all. Engine rebuild = thousands plugs = less than $30. What's the choice here?

Any spark plug cross reference guide will tell you that. All the plug manufacturers have cross reference charts on their web sites. Even your local auto parts store should be able to tell you if they are the same heat range.
