Does anyone know what the length difference is between the accel shorty plugs (P526S) vs. a NGK TR55 (or equal length) plug?

I have another thread posted right now concerning spark plug wire boots burning and these shorty plugs are one of my thoughts.

Thanks,
Adam

 

Link 3rd picture down on rt side of article may help.

 

Wow Adam, considering they are like $12 apiece I'm not sure that small of a difference is going to buy you anything...what do you think man?

 

Damn its like 4 or 5 milimeter difference. This is gonna sound dumb but cant you do something with the boot?

 

matt65- thanks for the link man.

I don't know what i'm going to do about my wires. I jacked the car up today to get underneath and check out most of the spark plug boots. All are good except for #5. I think the main reason it burned was because the heat sleeve wasnt around the boot very well. I've got some spare boots off a couple of my old taylor wires that i'm going to use in place of the burned one, for now at least.

But if i have anymore problems, i'm just going to bite the bullet and get the shorty plugs and accel 9000 wires.

 

the accel shorty plugs are about 1/4" shorter than delco's but the problem with the accels i cant find the shorties in the heat range i need
and to add to this autolite 104's are a shorter plug too not real short but shorter than most plugs

 

No problem, Keep us updated.

 

Say a fellow wanted to only install shorty plugs in 2 spots where clearance was minimal, and wanted to use ngk tr55's for the remaining 6 plugs. Would that cause any problems?

 

NO
Well if it was a Pro Stock.....
Shouldn't hurt a thing.

 

Thats what he said they cost earlier when he looked them up. Those aren't my numbers man

 

Moroso blue boots withstand much higher temperatures. There also MSD High temperature boots which are good too. Together with sleeve, they almost survive a contact with a ceramic-coated primary. If you have any air gap, you will be fine.
