I have a modified 1.7 in my '73. Running 96mm Mahle pistons, mild Webcam / lifters, stock D-Jet FI and Pertronix Ignitor. I'm running in a PCA Dr. Ed. event this Sat. at Road America, and am concerned about heat generation. Currently I'm using Bosch Super PO 282 (W7CC) plugs. I bought a set of Bosch Super RO 488 (W6DC) plugs, being advised that they are a colder plug. One concern is that they "reach" almost 1/4 inch longer than what I've been using.
Will they hit the piston tops? Are they actually a colder plug? I've had a heat problem in the past. Timing is set at 29 degrees advance. Fuel mixture setting at "two clicks" from richest setting. Any help/advice is appreciated. |
