  • spark plugs?

    I have a friend that is a production engineer for autolite spark plugs and he gave me some plugs to try. they only require 16kv for the spark to jump the gap as opposed to 26kv. however, the bridge is platinum. should i even bother, or will it cause to much damage???

    autolites are junk in my book, i wouldn't even bother changing them. But hey, you got headers so sparkplug changes should be a breeze for you, you make the call.

            Not sure, but I run regular bosch platinum plugs in mine, thats all I ever ran since i've owned my car and they seem to be pretty good plugs. I'd try a different route now and then but it's so damn hard to change plugs in my car.
