i just know that the people who have run the platinum they have changed them back the coppers a few weeks later. the hemi runs better on coppers and they are inexpensive too

coppers are inexpensive. and they are factory recommended. thats the 2 main reasons. but others will argue the point lol.

Dont listen to any of these guys they dont know what they are talking about. I would buy the most expensive plug that I could find for your Hemi. Copper sucks. Why would you take a finely tuned masterpiece of an engine and put junk copper plugs in it? Iridiums or platinum is the only way to go. On your next post be sure to ask what is the best oil,oil filter,air cleaner and lift kit. I need to know this info...







I wander if this has been talked about before on this forum??? You should do a search to see if Im right or wrong...
