I have been using Champion C59YC or C61YC plugs in my TR3 and in my
Spitfire, and so far so good. They are 3/4 inch reach projected tip
plugs that you can get way out into the chamber if you want. You can
adjust the depth with indexing washers. I still want to do some dyno
power comparisons between them and the 1/2 inch reach plugs. I do
have a concern that if they are out too far they will interfear with
the flame path. It sounds to me that it would be a good project for
a Grassroots Motorsports article. How about it Tim? You guys seem to
have lots of Dyno access. Joe(B)
