Nag that's just what your ht leads fit onto should be absolutely fine you should double check the spacing with what's in the Haynes manual and some feeler gauges as log as that's ok will be fine

They will be fine mate, they just have 3 electrodes instead of 1

The more electrodes the better the spark :)
