The Champion is a one piece but some have had problems with them and pulled them out. Also, they do not last as long and cost more. Many of us have not had a problem going to 65,000 to 100,000 and going back with Motorcraft. I plan on going to about 90,000 on this, my second set.
I will always run the motorcraft plugs I will just change them every 50k and I don't think I will have to many problems. Besides once you get them out the first time you apply nickle anti seize and from there on out it is a lot easier to pull them out. (theoretically, I am not sure that anyone has tried changing them out after the anti seize).

yep I am a firm believer in if Ford put the motorcraft parts in from the beginning then they are designed specifically meet the requirements they deemed important even if I need to do a little more occasional maintenance.
