plug choice is dependant mostly on what amount of boost you're throwing at the motor.

A 2003 Ford Factory water pump provides good cooling. Don't buy the hype of the 'Cobra R' being better. In short, it is not.

I recently installed the Denso IT-22's in my L, when I installed my 4 lb. lower.

Great idle, runs perfect at any RPM or speed.

However, Sal told me in an e-mail that the TR-6's will withstand more "abuse" if you run big boost, nitrous, etc.

I'll go out on a limb and say both will probably meet your needs.

JDM will give you good advice I'm sure.

 

TR6's work just fine and they are available locally for a $1.50 each. I used the denso's in my Supra with great results but all my blown Fords have had TR6's.

Make sure your gap them correctly, add a little anti seize and torque them correctly and you should be good to go.

I have the TR6ix's, the iridium model and am having no problems.

 

JUST SAY NO TO ANTI SEIZE UNLESS U HAVE THE EXTRA THREADS, anti seize causes them to wanna blow out more easily...its almost like it lubs thems

 

Tom,

Hey bud I sent something to ya today, it went to the shop!! (not the motor just yet )

We want to see NGK TR 6's in it gapped at a tight .034"

Talk to you soon

Go with the NGKs.In my opinion ,especially for the money the Densos are crapola!I just pulled mine after 1000 miles due tue a miss and found 4 out of 8 with broken ceramics.Keep in mind i was dyno tuned and had a great air fuel.They just didnt take well to my high boost 8lb lower and 2.7 upper.

 

if i was buying a motor from someone.......i would go on their recommendations.......but that's me.

Speaking of me........i have ngk TR6's gapped at .038 on my 4lb lower...

 

"thanks jim i know what it was?? hope you got a list of all my mods i sent in i think with your motor [JDM] i will be able to blow away anything that comes my way. If you say TR 6"S then thats what it will be. ????5-20 motorcraft first 3000 miles and after that 0-20 mobil 1no high boost till after first 1000 miles correct. :santa:

My NGK BR7EFs(5lb pulley) have been in for over 30,000 miles in my 01 L. I used Lubro Moly's antisieze and ran them down finger-tight plus 1/16th of a turn more. Over-torquing plugs in our 'soft', 4-5 threads, aluminum heads causes more blown plugs than a quality antisieze---with the proper torque/tightening.

Same here with no problems but plan on changing them more frequently

 

I run TR6s as well @ .038.

 

I used NGK TR6 in the past. They worked well for my needs. I now use Denso and I do not have any problems yet.... You can't go wrong with either brand.

 

I run TR6's in my JDM motor
