I have used autolites, NGKs, and champion spark plugs. Never had any issues.

Just for the record, I am extremely disappointed.

Take a Prozac and step back. I have a real AMC/IH motor in mine that will yank your subframe out from underneath ya so can't say anything bad about that. PERFORMANCE is measured in Hp and Tq, not just one and I built mine for all Tq. Every motor is different and will react differently to certain mods. I.E. the 4.0L may work good with these plugs but my motor runs like crap with anything other than the Coppers (Bosch). Does that mean I'm going to bash the use of NGKs? No, it doesn't. Because this was originally a trial of what someone used for theirs and worked well for them. They just share their findings, that's all. Like em, great. Hate em, move on.

You know, Southie, you're probably right. We do tend to prattle on about spark plugs and O2 sensors and engine oil and filters and gaskets and octane and winches and fuel mileage ... ..... ... ...... ... ....... ... ....... ... .... ...... ... . ... .... ... That's why we're here, isn't it? I mean, other than people like you who are here to patrol the internet for topics that aren't of interest to you so that you can tell the participants of that random conversation that because you find it trivial, it shouldn't be of interest to them, either. You may feel enlightened but you appear to be an idiot. Happy trolling!

NGK, ftw!

We can have our forum back? Really? I never knew it was missing. Anyone else? I guess it was here all the time. Just had a real bad smell for a bit. Everything's just rosey now, eh?

Maybe you should go take the Ferrari forum away from those guys.............Gimme a break.
