Spark Plug Question...non-resister??
So I got a new set of plugs a month or so ago, and I figured I'd try a bit hotter plug. I like NGK's, so I got 8 copper core V-Power plugs - .Part R5673-6
After looking closer at the box, I discover these are "Non-Resistor" race plugs.....
Should I even bother putting these in - will I even hear my radio??
- Or do you think they'll do fine?

haven't tried any myself but from what I understand with the high tension ignition circuit it can make for some pleasent issues with the radio as well as with the ECU itself
just out of curiosity why did you want to run a hotter plug?

There's no ECU to worry about. It's hanging on my garage wall along with the ECM harness, and the 305 is on a engine stand. Forgot to post my sig....
I wanted to go with a hotter plug, because the stock plugs always seem to have black soot on them. It's gotton way better since I added the MSD distributor and tinkered with the timing and carb jetting - and according to everything I've read, hotter plugs may help.

might hear some ignition noise
how much I'm not sure I will be honest there but you might hear some
also with the resistance in the spark plug wires alone might be enough to help counter act it
try running no resistor plugs as well as the racing wires ( I forget what they are made out of) and you prolly wouldn't like your radio
