Default Spark Plugs

Essential to the combustion engine, and commonly debated. What brand of spark plug do you use?

You might want to include the gap of your plugs as well since many ask what to gap them at.

Im running the E3's (5.99 each)

its expensive but its worth it. deffinatly gives better spark. im getting another set of E3's for my rebuild.

as for the gap, i did not gap them, for they are the triple prong and need no gap

Right now I'm running Autolite 3923s with .45 gap. I am going to try Champion truck plugs when I do the plenum gasket.

How did you test that the E3s give a better spark?

when i went to advanced to get plugs for my truck they didnt have the 3923s listed under my truck. i asked they guy about them and he said that they had some but didnt know if they would work in my truck. did u just ask for them when u got urs? and did u get the regular copper ones or the platnums?

i'm using standard copper autolite 3924's. seem to do just fine. i did have champion truck plugs in there as well, and they did just fine too. still good in fact. i just bought the autolites to see if there was much of a difference, there wasn't haha.

I went in and just asked for "8 Autolite Copper Core 3923s." I almost always have the P/N I need for the part I am getting so I can be in-and out of NAPA.
