But why would you only want to run one new plug in an engine? You stand the possibility of have an uneven running engine do to different heat ranges, gaps and wear related resistance of the other plugs.

Where can you goto buy Magnecor 8mm Ignition Wires? Louisiana here and autozone didnt show up with those ignition wires, also the sparkplugs... what type to get?

I see yall say Bosch 4+ if im reading it right, it has 4 prongs on the end correct, if switching from a regular sparkplug to that is there anything different i need to buy... or just the bosch 4+ and magnecor 8mm wire set?

Call Tony at Cerrone's/LRRFourm.com, at 650-365-4145, he has one of the better on-line prices for the plugs, he also has the plugs and no, you don't need to do anything different when running the Plus 4 plugs.

Wow this just answered all my questions too.

I just purchased platinum +4's and was going to install them after the head gasket change, but I believe I will wait and purchase some magnecor wire's also.

Thanks again

There was a write up about on here 4 or 5 weeks ago about changeing out the wire with secondary air and no manifold removal, might want to start searching it out.
