I couldn't figure out why drilling a ground strap (rather than the electrode) would do anything to the electrical properties of a spark plug, until I read Pocket's post..."Quote:

gMAG I think that it is possible to reshape a conductor, or electrode, so that current is limited at a certain range, and also delayed, like a capacitor.
Arbitrarily drilling a hole in a spark electrode can't be worth the return that is promised, though.

No...if the record holders of LS and LT drag cars are still running a conventional style plug what makes you think your bolt on or cam only car should run anything different. Just stick with NGKs or Delco and gap them at .040, tighten it up for boost or spray
