Autolite #75,74 or # 85,84. Champion RJ10YC, RJ12YC or R12Y or R10Y if you can find those last two part numbers still luck
Not sure on the current NJK part #s confused
10.5 to 1 compression ratio with iron heads is a gamble on detonation with todays pump fuel, be careful on the tuning twocents
Colder plugs are usually needed also, like Autolite #73 or #83, Champion RJ6 or colder also scope


Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

Not to hijack, but in this application are there any equivalents that use a 5/8" hex plug for header flange clearance?

Not that I am aware of.

1974 474 Duster - in a similar engine I use NGK 3332. Also known as XR5.
I have never fouled a plug. I think it would idle until it ran out of gas. Lol.
Of coarse Your results may vary depending on state of tune.
Hint - with that cam it will like 18-20 deg advance at idle.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
