I have been reading different threads and everyone has a different opinion. I'm waiting for the motor to arrive and i need to order some plugs. I have purchased a .1mm shim b/c i plan on using 30% Byrons with 11% oil to break in and use so im torn on what plug to get. Information overload.

1. Does this motor need Longer plugs or will the standard length work?

Some have said to stay away from the long plugs as it might cause damage like the LC3 from OS if it hits the piston.

2. Based on some reading and various articles it's pretty clear the more nitro content the colder you want to go. Dave from OFNA recommended their Medium 51011........B5 standard medium.

But tuners have told me to use the cold plugs. On some threads I see people recommending the McCoy 59 which is hot for break-in but it is a long length plug which worries me.


What do you guys think?

No issue with plug length, it's either standard-long or short. I run medium heat standard-long plugs with 30% nitro all the time, you don't need to shim.

thanks

So why are you hasseling those guys at rcnt anyway?

That thread was closed down and got way off on a tangent. There is one very insecure member there who really has nothing better to do than post nonsense. The mod and I cleared things u and everything is good.

Mclovin350z

Yeah, I can't find the thread anymore, but the last I post I saw was you being a real douche towards that other guy.

jetspeedz

I disagree, he was providing bad information andI was simply correcting him. Anyway i don't want to get into here and I already talked to the mod and settled it over there.

cheers

Heis a good guy, and has helped me several times. I find it very hard to believe that he's giving you bad info. I have seen himargue with people over there before, but he's usually right, or at least has a good point.He is simply telling you not to over-think the situation, unless of course you plan on doing some all out racing or something like that. I gotta say when it comes to the shim discussion I agree, it's almost impossible to notice a difference of .1mm.

Fyi, you can't call someone insecure while using foul language, that's very cowardly and childish.

jetspeedz

Like i said i don't want to get into it. The guy was giving bad info and it's simple as that. I had a technical conversation going with the experienced member who works on these engines for a living and were discussing specifics and this guy who does not even own a basic set of caliper chimes in with his worthless opinion and bring up the old thread.

Moving on.

Mclovin350z

He knows what he's doing, you were just treating him like a jerk and being way too stubborn. It's only a picco .26, and I agree with him, it's not rocket science. If you were into some hardcore racing that wouldbe a different story, but you wouldalso be using a real engine.

jetspeedz

I stand by my statement above, if you agree with him that is good for you.

Moving on

Fair enough. Btw, you can't judge someone by the tools they have or don't have.
