The NGK-8's can take you pretty far. I ran them with my LS2 motor. I have since switched to AR3911's. They seem to be lasting longer than the 8's at this level. But don't drive as nice. Might try some AR3910's.

Anyone have a NGK part number for these "NGK-8s" ? there is no TR-8 in any book. And any place online to order them? No place in town here even carrys TR-6s.
