For plugs, the hemis like the champion coppers. Caps? Wires?

X2 I put them in my 5.9 on my last truck and the E3's were a pain in the a$$!! Kept setting off my CEL saying misfire. I did the TSB on wire routing and it helped and then.........BAM! tripped the code again for another cylinder............. Coppers went in and it ran like a champ. No shudder or stammer, just ran like a new truck. Sometimes them engineers got it right the first time.

So did you do a tune-up yet? What plugs did you go with?

I'm ready to do mine, and I'm searching for what plug works the best in the hemi's. By the sounds of this thread I would say the Champion copper? Any other opinions?
