in my old Windsor head 289 and 331. when I ran out of autolite BF22. I switched over to NGK AP8FS, ran good looking for more power. I got some Auotlite AR33. motor ran better. but the plugs were crude at best, had four sets. picked out the best ones to make three sets. took the rest to the nationals at BIR talked to the autolite rep at there service trailer. said whats the deal with these plugs. the rep took the plugs, gave me a set to replace the bad ones, and another for my trouble. OK? the block split in the 331, start over with a 348 ci dart sb started out with NGK R5671A8 had room for extended tip switched to R5672A8 it ran better! next I got some Autolite AR3911 ban better yet. then something odd happened, I got some Champion C61YC the car picked up a lot, night and day difference, and I hate champion plugs. not any more. thats what I am running now, some plugs just run better than others. not the first time I have seen this
