I'm doing up a stock '66 B Roadster as exact as possible. I believe the recommended plug in the factory literature was the Champion N5, apparently no longer available today. What is acceptable if I g

Thanks for the note Steve. Yeah, I've listened to the Chrysler thing all my life and gotten used to it. Actually I'm building this car for a good friend. Both he and I have been in Austin Healey circ

Originally N5 but N9Y from early 63 although this didn't apply to North America until possibly 67. So strictly for concourse it's N5 or nothing if it was original equipment. If you look long enough y

Thanks for the response Paul. I have found a set of Champion RN9YC's that all match exactly and look okay. I'll install them as a happy medium. The owner can change to whatever he wants after the fac

Ah, yes, another controversy for the list... NGK BP6ES are my plug of choice. They cross reference from the original spec properly, seem to have a good wide heat range and seem resistant to fouling.

I agree with what you are saying about electrical theory, however, OE car makers are going to multiple electrode plugs. And don't forget that car makers employ lots of engineers that get paid lots of

Ummm, I think I have to disagree here. I've heard this pseudo-theory more times than I care to remember. No where in electrical theory (or practice) does electricity seek the path of least resistance

The original statement is true..and accurate. Just not quite definative. The multi- point plugs...do nothing more than increase surface area where a spark could jump. To be accurate... what you would

The spark will occur where the gap is narrowest. When air (the dielectric) breaks down (ionizes) its resistance drops to a low value. This loads down the voltage, making it impossible for an arc to s
