Time for some serious spark plugs!!*! So after the recent mods, the least I can do to squeeze every little bit of horsepower out of the car is change the spark plugs right? so i saw this video..-----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A9_7RtFoZ4 <----- And figured I would try the new E3 Spark plugs, anyone ACTUALLY try these, and have bad results? I would think with all that surface area it really would make a better spark? any serious reviews welcome! thanks again!

Okay so theres really no gain?! even at 6 dollars a plug if they are reliable and even add 1 horsepower, its still a horsepower gain, right? plus I had a problem with it not always firing, what would I need for a MSD Box and what kind of gains would i get?

Yea, in your wallet

Number 1 rule of electricity - it will always follow the path of least resistance.
You can have a circle of as many ground straps going around a sparkplug as you want and it will still always only spark on one of them. The only benefit will be the plugs lifespan, since as one gets worn down it will move on to a different strap.

I've put E3 into three different cars, including my LT1. They don't seem to add noticeable HP but the engine seems to run happier. I saw a significant mpg increase in my 3.4 V6 firebird and my 3.8 Grand Prix and LT1 firebird seem to run smoother, but no measurable HP or mpg increases. They are great plugs but i don't know if they are worth the extra money. If you have an extra $30 than I'd recommend them.

So with the dimond bit end there sould be alot less resistance? right? I have a dyno at my desposil, I think I'm going to have to do a few pulls to break fact from fiction!

Now just time to get the motor in the car
