Hi out there I have the 77 corvette V8 5.7 350 CI and I was wondering that should I use Bosch platinum 2 sparkplugs? They have 4 prongs instead of just 1. Do they make this for the corvette? Do they work just as good as Champion or AC Delco? Or some other high performance sparkplug? Thank you for your help

Yes, they work just as well as the standard AC Delco. But not better. A 'High Performance' spark plug is a wet dream of the marketing folks that unfortunately too many people buy into. Save your money.
