when i took the head off my motor a few weeks back, I noticed that the plugs I had installed were sunk rather far in the plug hole. I don't really remember which plugs they are, but I bought one of the sets mentioned in the crossover parts post. Just wondering if anyone else has ever noticed the same, or just randomly taken a picture of the underside of a head so i can compare.

the ca18et uses 8plugs 4 intake side and 4 exhaust side.

my bad actually the intake side are a colder plug.

BCPR6E-11 NGK differnt types of ngk plugs have diff desiginations afer the "e". exhaust is a 5 which is the heat range of the plugs, you want to get 6 or 7s

intake plugs are a 6 my car ran better on 6's

i run mine on 7's. i find it runs a little rich at the moment. but i'll have to see what i can do with an SAFC and some tuning. i should be able to lean mine out more than i could with a 6, to a point ofcourse.
