The Autolites used to be my plug of choice when they were made in the USA. I haven't tried the recent ones made in China.
All the ones I still see new at Walmart are made in Mexico not China,FWIW.

I ran them for years.In the newer Mopars I run Champions.Switched to NGKs in the spring and they seem to have a better idle and run smoother.Rocky

autolite plugs are ok if you are running N/A. I have seen one or two come apart on a supercharged engine when they were going over 100 mph. The electrode on the bottom of the plug came apart. I have run them, NGK, Champions all in my truck and really could not tell a difference between any of them.

Champion = MOPAR Autolite = Ferd AC Delco = Chivvy Anything that was cheapest = AMC Any questions?
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
