I've tried the Brisk plugs. I can't recommend them. Left me with a dead hole within 100 miles of use. They supposedly have changed the design and resolved the issue, even offered me a set the other day to try. I passed, I don't have the 4.6L anymore so it's no longer an issue for me. However, i wouldn't try them again if I did.
I'm using NGK's with great success in my 5.4L.

Unfortunately no. The only ones I've had any luck with is the HT0's and HT1's. As far as I can tell the verdict is still out on the Champion plugs. But if you try them let me know how they work.

I'm a little concerned about burning off the half strap but I do like the one-piece barrel design.
Yeah with the Brisk the whole electrode disappeared!! They claimed it melted. There like 95% silver with chromium alloy. I doubt the thing just evaporated!
I noticed in another thread your spraying. Are you also running boost?

Nice!!! Yeah you should be able to use those plugs without to much trouble just read them regularly (I'm sure you know already). I wouldn't think spark blowout would be a problem with N/A.
Let me know how they work for you!

I typically pull and inspect the plugs every 30-45 days just to be sure. More often when I hit the track.
Till now I had quite a couple of cars. Fords, Chevys, Mopars, IHC, Saab, etc. If it comes to spark plugs, the only advice I can give is:
- Old cars with primitive ECU (TB injection or carburetor) can handle a wide variety of spark plugs. Just drop in what ever brand you like as long as thread, thread lenght and heat range are the same.
- New cars with highly sophisticated ECU's rely on plenty of values to control engine combustion. Some even measure ionization voltage at the tip of the spark plug. Dropping in any other spark plug than what the ECU and the engine was designed for can/will result in bad performance, etc.
I made my best experiences with OEM spark plugs. They usually work best even with a bunch of bolt-ons. How ever if you are going into power adders such as nitrous or super/turbochargers, you will need to change spark plugs (lower heat range).

just my .02
Unless Motorcraft changes to a one-piece barrel design, I won't go back. I just won't risk having one break off in the head.
At what meliage are most of you changing out the plugs? Are you mainly doing this because of the carbon build up issue around the lower end of the spark plug.
