You really should tell people up front that you are looking at 700 flywheel HP and 14:1 (or whatever it is) compression. It makes no sense for people to tell you they are running TR55's in relatively stock engines. Its just wasting their time.

thats why I asked for Race plug, I wanted to see if anyone was running anything close to the 3924's. I realize now I didn't word the question like I should have

Well could not get the AR103's to run/ idle they were fouling out no matter what I did to the tune.

Went with a little hotter plug and she fired up first time and idles fine.

Anyone know where to find a chart with heat ramges?
