A lot of experienced guys have spent their time to post the correct answer. You've been told, just don't wanna hear. We get that here from time to time. Might wanna throw in some Z-max while you're @ it, lol.

Yes, a family member tried 'em & I pulled 'em when they called me to help fix the miss-fire that was causing their check engine light.

They do make for a decent gear head Christmas tree ornament.

I installed them in my 2004 Tahoe LT back in 08ish..... Within a few hundred miles the 5.3 Vortex started to idle rough, followed by a misfire on a few of the cylinders. Took them out, installed AC Delcos- Never had an issue again!!

Since then I've never given them a second chance. I run NGK TR55's in my 02 SLP SS Camaro and my Trailblazer SS.

Alright folks, the general consensus is that the E3 plugs are not a reliable plug for most people nor do they offer performance/mileage gains for most people.
