Oh f*ck, don't tell me that...I just put 3923's in... Jr. Mechanic, I'm gonna come and smack you Seriously though, I don't know... I almost bought that Accel tune up kit from Summit...it had those plugs in it... I would think they are probably good plugs...they make good wires. Be the guinea pig for us[8D]

3923 Heat range might be a bit to low for winter.
Do you make a lot of short trips? That could lead to fouling.
It is quite a bit cooler than the stock ones

I ran Denso U-grooves in my Honda CBR 1000 with no issues.
I don't think there is really much performance to be gained in difference in spark plug design.
Really only one way to know for sure though [sm=smiley20.gif]

Okay, so the factory gap is .040, which is where I have my 3923's set right now. I'm going to get that MSD coil (8228), so will I need to change the gap on my plugs? I will be running the Jeg's 8mm wires, Jeg's dist cap & rotor, and the MSD coil with the 3923's.
