This is right out of Alldata @ my work

AWSF-32E spark plugs have a platinum-enhanced center electrode and are used in cylinders 5, 6, 7 and 8.
AWSF-32EG spark plugs have a platinum-enhanced ground (side) electrode, and are used in cylinders 1, 2, 3 and 4.
If any spark plug is removed and re-installed, it MUST be installed in the same cylinder from which it was removed. If any spark plug is replaced, use only spark plugs with part number AWSF-32EE (as listed on the vehicle emission control information label). This replacement spark plug has double platinum enhancement on both the center and ground electrode and may be used in all eight cylinders.

You can run 764's in it, but you will be replacing them sooner than you think you should.
The platnium plugs are there because the igition systems used on today's cars will wear standard plugs out very fast

Good Luck
