i use autocraft and have found them to be great.
Probably going to get as many opinions on this as there are plug brands.... In the drag cars, we run NGK, on the steet, we run Autolites... But the lawn mower and snowblower still run best on Champions!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Snowblowers yes, Fords no. I have never gotten Champion or A/C plugs to work in a Ford worth a darned.Quote:

Anyway, I know an NGK rep, he got us a good number for the big blocks. On the other hand, can't get the NGK's to live in a street engine... Again, could just be not having the right numbers???? But the Autolites have always done great in the Windsor's and Clevelands on the street...Quote:

Actually Champions run best in my 68 Chevy 350. Short reach plugs (3/8") that acually come in single packs. Last time I bought some the guy at the auto parts store asked me if they were for my lawn mower. :LOL: :LOL: :LOL::mad:
I have not tried AC Delco's (use them in my 57 Olds) but I have use Denso's and Autolites, but like neither as much as the Champion's.
