Hi fellas and Gals. Who in Oz sells Motorcraft Spark Plugs for the 4.6 DOHC engines in the 2001/2002 Mustang Engines?
Part number SP433 Motorcraft.
Big Al do you stock them?
Or is there someone else?

Cheers all....

Would imagine they're the same ones for a 5.4L DOHC Australian modular motor?

Thanks for the reply.

I have found the NGK ones. You speak to owners in USA and they mostly state stick to Motorcraft ones as the NGK have generate more heat. But I might try them. TR6 or TR55. Will have to do some more research.
What you reckon Jeff?

Americans use motorcraft ,Aussies use NGK . Just platinum plugs should be fine and last 100,000 klms .  Just make sure they are the same heat range . If you want motorcraft you might have to get them from the states .

Anything with a rare-metal electrode would be fine. Check out the mainstream manufacturers and go from there...
