L87Y or L87YC is a standard replacement for the original L10S.  I've used
them with good results in my TR4 and my MG-TC for many years.  However I
recall seeing a message a while ago indicating that Champion has changed
the numbering system again, and the L87Y has been replaced by some other
number. I didn't pay much attention because I have enough L87Y plugs on
hand to last me a long time.
