Copper Spark Plug: Delivers Quick Starts, Good Fuel Economy, Smooth Acceleration

from

$3.49
With over 100 years of engineering expertise and more than 11 billion plugs sold, Autolite continues to set the standard in spark plug technology. Designed and engineered in the USA, these spark plugs feature a copper-glass seal that bonds the insulator, terminal post, and center electrode together, ensuring full required voltage at the spark gap with a 100% leak-proof, gas-tight seal. The multi-rib insulator reduces the risk of flash-over, while the one-piece terminal post adds strength and durability. Additionally, the built-in resistor minimizes radio frequency interference (RFI) and electrode erosion, making these plugs a reliable choice for any vehicle. The tapered seat type further enhances the plug’s performance, providing quick starts, good fuel economy, and smooth acceleration.

Product Features:
  • Copper-glass seal bonds insulator, terminal post center electrode together; assures full required voltage at spark gap; gas-tight seal (100% leak proof)
  • Multi-rib insulator reduces danger of “flash-over”
  • One-piece terminal post adds strength
  • Resistor reduces radio frequency interference (RFI) and electrode erosion

E3 – DiamondFIRE Automotive Spark Plug: More Power, Saves Gas (Part No.E3.52)

DiamondFIRE Automotive Spark Plug: More Power, Saves Gas

from

$6.49
The Spark Plugs are the product of years of fundamental research in the combustion field. The unique patented electrode configuration of these new The spark plugs increases the amount of combustion pressure created during each power stroke of an engine, which results in a marked increase in power output, fuel economy, and reduced emissions in all gasoline engines. E3.52 is a 14mm, 0.375 reach plug with a gasket seat. It fits a wide variety of GM applications from the 50s to early 80s, and is generally the correct plug for older small block Chevrolet engines. The automotive plugs have three legs securing the Diamond FIRE electrode to the shell. This allows for excellent heat transfer, and helps to create more turbulence in the cylinder. The patented Diamond FIRE side wire is proven to increase power, reduce fuel consumption and improve hydrocarbon emissions in long-term use.

Product Features:
  • E3’s Diamond Fire edge to edge ground electrode provides maximum performance with increased efficiency and a faster more complete burn.
  • Smoother Acceleration & Idle – The faster flame initiated by the The spark plug results in a more complete burn of the ingested fuel charge. More pressure is created against the piston more fuel is put to work
  • Energy – Power output improved up to 6% on average in the typical operating ranges. Results will vary.
  • Efficiency – The “diamond shaped” side wire electrode projects the combustion spark in a way that more quickly ignites the air/fuel mixture, thereby creating a significantly faster and larger flame kernel. The result is that more fuel is put to work durin
  • E3’s patented Diamond Fire Technology provides a cleaner burning combustion, which translates into fuel savings and reduced engine carbon deposits
  • The Spark Plugs are pre-gapped at the factory and cannot be adjusted.

Accel – High-Performance Shorty Spark Plugs for Header Clearance (Part No.8199)

High-Performance Shorty Spark Plugs for Header Clearance

from

$52.99
ACCEL’s patented race proven spark plugs in a Shorty configuration. The overall length has been reduced 3/16 in to 3/8 in (depending on the specific spark plug) to gain critical air gap between the spark plug boot and the exhaust manifold or header tube. This helps eliminate burning the spark plug boot or dimpling the header tube. The shorter spark plug length also can make it easier to install an remove the spark plugs in certain applications where there is not a lot of room to fit a socket or move a wrench around. ACCEL Shorty Spark Plugs are made with a Copper core which is a better conductor than Platinum and Iridium. They deliver a stronger spark especially in high performance applications where high combustion pressures are present. Copper is much better at dissipating heat than other materials which lessens the chance of a misfire. ACCEL Shorty Spark Plugs are gapable allowing you to open the gap exposing a larger flame kernel or close it if needed for high boost applications. All ACCEL Shorty Spark Plugs have machine rolled threads allowing for a more precise thread engagement and torque retention.

Product Features:
  • Shorty Spark Plugs For Tubular Exhaust Headers
  • Eliminates Dimpling Headers For Added Clearance
  • Improves Spark Plug Access To Fit Socket Or Wrench
  • Shorter Overall Plug Length Vs. OE Style Plug
  • Copper Core Center Electrode
  • Projected Tip
  • Helps Eliminate Burned Spark Plug Boots
  • Shorty Header Spark Plug
