After talking to Champion and Autolite they say the only way to get a colder is to go to the racing plugs V59YC. Autolite warned me that they will foul easily if the motor is idling alot but Champion didn't say anything about it. Is anybody using them in a street car ? do they work OK ? I'm starting to regret using these heads especialy when I had a set of 906's that I could have used.

I don't have much choice but to run these plugs unless I want to pull the heads and put my 906's on it and I don't want to do that right now...... maybe next winter.

I have the Champion racing plugs in mine and they do just fine.

It was almost like he was trying to scare me away from buying his product. Champion didn't say anything of the sort so I ordered Champions.
