Sparkplugs revisited

[Potterman at parts4vws.com (Mike Potter)]

I'd use NGK BPR6ES. I run the BPR7ES in my 11.2-1 RD motor(1 heat range
colder than stock)& I have yet to have one fail. The GX will run great all
around on the BPR6ES plugs. But you may be a little rich if they are fouling
out.

Hi all,

I've been reading the spark plug thread with interest, now I need to
take it to the next level. My engine is a GX with the hydraulic head, I
have a stock '81 electronic ignition from an '81 Cabby. I don't have a
lamba or any kind of pollution control on this car, just engine, gas,
spark. Now, I'm running Bosch Super RD 391 and they get fouled really
quick with black soot. Since I use the car mainly for autoX I rarely go
on long distance trips although I do get the car up to temperature. So,
I figure my temperature range is not right on the plugs, what plugs
should I run so they last longer? Should I keep two sets, one for autoX
and other for more distance travel?

Also, let's keep it safe out there, eventually "The Project" won't be
such torture to drive long distances and I might make it to Cincy and I
would like to meet ALL of you when I do.
