Spark Plugs?

A few have recommended NGK TR6 plugs for use on blown applications. This may be a dumb question, but I'll ask it anyway.

If I'm not mistaken, I need a tapered seat, 14mm thread, 3/4" reach plug. As I shop around, I see different reach plugs...like a .460 or a .750 and a .708 - which am I supposed to get?? They claim to all be for Chevy V8's....

Here's the spec on the NGK's:

NGK Spark Plugs #739-TR6

# V-Power Resistor Spark Plug14mm x .708" Reach
# 5/8" Hex
# Projected
# Tapered seat

The .708 reach is throwing me off. Are these the right ones??

Re: Spark Plugs?

youll have to find your head manufacturers specs for spark plugs to run in them.

Ahhh...I thought it was simple. Just looked it up, and I should have .460 reach plugs, which means I have the wrong ones in it now.

Looks like I'm going with the UR-5's....


NGK Spark Plugs #739-UR5

# V-Power Resistor Spark Plug14mm x .460" Reach
# 5/8" Hex
# Projected
# Tapered seat

-Thanks!!
