Hi,

I've been using Accel 114's for the last ten or 15 years, they seem to=20
work fine. I have a collection of different temp range plugs from Accel=20
all the way from 113 through 117. I've never taken the time to play on the=
=20
dyno to see if there's any difference changing heat range. I know =3D "my=
=20
bad". I've never had a plug fail despite the amount of internet detritus=20
regarding the quality of this brand.

In any case I was thinking about switching to NGK. My TR6 motor is 12:1,=20
Webers, cam (street duration Isky Z19), header, etc. Ignition is Mallory /=
=20
Pertronix.

Would the NGK BP6ES or BP7ES be a better choice?

Regards,
rml
