Default Glo Bee's

Dickiebird,

The only Globee style plug that LiteMachines had that I'm aware of was for the norvel engine. This was a glo head and not a screw in type plug. I talked to "Dave" at LM a while back and he told me that they no longer make that plug, and their stock is gone, and they don't plan on making any more. So, if you stumble across any, buy 'em all and hold on tight. This glohead will produce the most power on norvel's, and if it can be adapted to the Cox it's sure to be a winner. It's not just the spiral element that's responsible for the power, the design and the cut of the chamber helps a great deal too. If you get some of the globee's, the center post is not supported, so fill the center with five minute epoxy and that will eliminate any breakage problems. If you don't do that the center post WILL break off after a few runs, rendering the plug almost useless. Rgds, Jeff.....
