I can heartily recommend *not* using SplitFire plugs.  The ceramic insulator

design is bogus: smooth with no ridges.  



The problem is that the spark plug wire boot will bond to the smooth surface

of the insulator over time with heat, and you won't be able to get it off

without tearing the boot.
