Can 1.8T spark plugs be used in a 8v hydro head?

[patrick.bureau at gmail.com (Patrick Bureau)]

Bosch triple cathode copper plus are 1.69$/each and are better than the
NGK's btw (grin)

PS: if you do a lot of combined city/hwy driving the platinum plugs provide
more consistent MPG (last time I had tested a set I got 32mpg) versus the
copper plugs that provide better MPG on hwy; 34mpg, (but gave 28 in city)

So tested them out but track the MPG you may find they provide more
consistency in MPG but not necessarily the most MPG you can get out of your
car.

Just get the NGK cheepo copper plugs - they are 1.50 and they are THE
BEST!!!(IMHO) The only reason to use platinum plugs is if you want to
go 100,000 miles on the same plugs. PLATINUM IS FOR LAZY PEOPLE!!
Copper is a better conductor - but it tarnishes. Also - If you can get
your hands on them - Bosch Super plugs are really good - they are
copper but are a real pain to get a hold of over here.
