New Head Design

Ford apparently has finally admitted that they made a big mistake in the head design for the 05, 06, and earlier 07 S197's.

So let me guess, Ford has no intentions of recalling 05, 06, and early 07's, to be retro fitted with these new 3v revised cylinder heads.

In the meantime. it seems the only other option, is upgrade to either the Brisk one piece design (silver) spark plugs, or the new one piece designed Champion double platinum spark plugs.

Sounds like Ford knows there is a problem...it will be interesting in the next few weeks/months to see any new TSB's that arise from this.
