I'm not Alex, but my old car had those heads. Tried many plugs, but the best was Autolite Racing plugs # AR135. BTW, they come pre-gapped at .026. But, the electrode is cut back to the side. Don't change the gap. Alex carries them. You can also get them on overnite order from Advance Auto Parts, if you have one in the area.

Yep, the AR plugs are the best plug out there right now. That's what is in my racecar, and I even stuck a set in KK's racer.

The AR 135 will be a little colder. Take a look at this chart: http://66.155.51.113/technical/sheets/spark/Autolite.pdfLook at the top right and you will find the 14mm, tapered seat, .460 reach plugs. The 135 is in the same family as your 24/25's. The 23-26's have a powertip vs the std tip on the 131-136 and run a little hotter. On the chart the AR designation is not listed, just the 135 etc. The AR racing plug is the same design, but it has a nickel body with the back cut electrode. Here is a complete listing of the AR plugs: http://cpgparts.alliedsignal.com/cpg/catalog/autolite/legal/RacingCrossRef.pdf Later, David Cole
