I can get the j4c plugs at my local advance auto parts for $3 or so.

My engine needed permagaps. (recommended anyway) would it work ok with conventional plugs... maybe... I don't know so I went permagaps at 4/20$ on Amazon. Lot cheaper than Champions at 15 $ each .

Wait until you buy them for your hi tech electronic controlled engine in your car !! Neighbor had a tuneup on his hemi....plugs, wires, etc....over 300 bucks in plugs and wires ...no labor !!

Hemi has 2 per cylinder so 16 plugs total. Just sayin...

That I know, because my neighbor has three of them and he constantly complains about it !!! No complaints though when he pulls his 8K lb trailer !!

I used to change plugs on a 350 small block.----Took one look at the 5.7 Hemi and said----" frustration factor is not worth it "----$275 CA later and on the road again.

That will teach him to buy a truck that needs 16 plugs to do the work of 6...lol

Truck I drive now has no sparkplugs ( Cummins )--------But that does not mean a continuous saving.-----Some other super expensive repairs will show up.
