Re: spark plugs for patriot heads??

did you buy the heads new if so they recommend plugs all i know is you have to go 2 heats ranges or so lower when you use nitrous

well like i said just start out with a colder plug you can't hurt anything that way and just change still you get the right heat range and watch out for plug to piston contact just spin motor by hand see if they hit first

Re: spark plugs for patriot heads??

whatever they recommend for stock motor, go 1 to 2 steps colder on the rating. Gap it tighter at .030-.035 and it shoudl be good to go.
