Was at a swap meet yesterday and saw these. He says he has three more and I was wondering if I should get them to use or just collect?

Without being sure of the heat range I would be reluctant to use them, JMO.

I have some Montgomery Ward plugs that I pulled out of a Model A engine. They seemed to run about as good as 3x's.

If they are inexpensive buy them, display or use them, your choice.

Just saying.....

Depending on the cost I would not be afraid to use them. If they don't work, so be it. Maybe try one at a time along with the existing plugs in your engine. If not the right heat range you will know soon enough.
