NGK's!!!! Endorsed by the Hillbilly Racing Team!!!! Even makes my old boat hum!

[/ QUOTE ]

Spot on! I just ordered up a spare set of NGK's to swap out - mine is starting to stumble a bit because I've been idling around town with the track fat jets in it. I'm suspecting they are a bit fouled, we'll see!

[/ QUOTE ]I only run the old AC plugs. Maybe the new ones are junk. I tried the NGK's and had good results but they did seem to foul a little around town over the older AC's. I am a little rich in the primaries too. I also had good luck with the Autolite 85 or 86's.

Called NGK yesterday to find out what to run in my stock 70 LS5. He said the replacement for the R43T is a NGK 2405.

Not sure if I really got the warm and fuzzy from this guy....But that is what he told me.

I just may have to give a set of NGK's a shot in the ol' LS-6 of mine and see how they compare to my usual plugs.
