autolight 295

[shoe box Jack]

I was just reading about dirt track racing in the 1960s and the preferd plug was a 295 autolight . I use a 216 in the 49 I never heard off a 295 has anyone tried a 295?. jack

Not sure about 295's, but I found out Rock Auto offers the best prices on spark plugs.

They have the 295's @ $1.01 where most others sell them for $4.00 a piece.

Was probably the plug to use for "dirt track racing" conditions so I wonder just what miraculous improvements would happen by using them in a daily driver?

My guess is it would be a cold plug for racing. Probably not good for the street.

I agree with what flatjack has suggested;

Only reference I could find on the 295. Pete post 8#. Probably for what you are doing is not necessary. Don't over think it. Normal plug will work for most everyone. Clean it. Putting a different plug in is about as effect as replacing the regular plugs on a tuneup. Plugs will not give you that much or any hp less you have something else going on. Need to do more.

295 is shorter threads...so maybe for aluminum heads but not for stock.
It´s not a cold racing plug design...same design as 216...insulater and electrode same.
