Spark Plugs 283

philbilly · 03-20-2012, 09:27 PM

What are you guys using? The 283 is on its way in. I am curious to what plugs people are running.

I had started using the Accel 137, but I've heard they may not be available anymore.

Here's a cross-reference tool I found that might help you.

Where is the best place to get accel plugs? we have KOI around there is a O reillys and ADvance in dry ridge. and a autozone.

AC R 43 or R 44 stock was R 45. I run some of the Accel and NGK as well haven't seen a big diff. ---Trevor

u can also ask autolite if they have crossovers for the old 74 cold plug, 75 medium plug and the 76 which was a hot plug. but the 137 accels were very good also.

Is this a stock or super stock? We run a # 266 champion race plug or j63y, it is a fine wire plug with a 60ths gap.This is in super stock combo. Tom
