Which 14mm Spark Plugs to use?
 

Since the Bosch plugs everyone touted as being so great have been discontinued, which 14mm spark plug is the 'hot ticket' now to use on a 'Z' headed engine with stock-type plug wires?

TIA!!

I never tried the 14mm plugs but I tried all the others and have found the good old Champion X to be the best but just barely edging out the Autolite plugs.

I use Bosch #4003 for several years with good luck in each of my 3 T's and set them @ .065 with electronic ignition or .030 without.

Brent, I just checked online & they are. You might try your local auto parts store. They changed from #4203 to #4003 a year or so ago. I bought a set (spare) a few months ago.
