I think you are confused. If your plugs are burning or getting too hot. Your heat range is too high and you would need a cooler plug. Hotter plugs dissipate heat into the head slower than a colder heat range plug.

You could try the autolite 3923's. Or see if your local parts store can cross to another brand that runs colder
