Spark Plugs & N2O
 
Which spark plugs are you guys on the bottle running? I recently installed an NOS system, and just anihalated my Autolite 26's. After doing some reading, it's my understanding that when running N20, a colder plug should be used (one step colder than stock would be Autolite 24)
In addition to that, I've heard a plug with a recessed nose and bigger ground strap should also be used to dissipate the heat.
So I guess to make a long question short, what plugs are you guys running??

Thanks!

The 24 is right on the money with anything up to a 125 shot, I ran a 23 with the stock heads and a 150 shot (11.70's)... gapped 'em at .035 of course ;)

Currently, I use NGK R5671A-9 w/ a 200 shot, and have used the Autolite Racing plugs in the past with good results, but have easier access to the NGK's ...either are good IMHO.

with no more nitrous than you are using 24's are perfect as ultraflo said.

Thanks!
 
Delving into the spark plug world is kinda confusing at first. Everything I've read or figured out on my own (have a spare head sitting on the floor, thread one in and actually SEE what it looks like in the chamber)points me to the 24. So it looks like I was pretty close. Thanks for the help guys! I'll let you know how it goes this Friday night!

How do I get the kewl little avatar pic?
