Question Spark plugs

SPARK PLUGS
What kind do you run & why?
How often do you change plugs?

Champion---they produce a tad more HP than the Autolites (dyno proven)- Changing frequency depends on the situation-FED 387

I was running Champion, RC12YC, but they're getting hard to find, and the racing version is near impossible to find. Trying some AC Delco plugs soon.

Champion N9YC ( 300 New # ) in small Mopars.
I liked Champion N63YC but have not found any
for a couple years!

Anyone have a good Big Block Plug for stocker.
Autolite AR seem to have been changed vendors last
couple years and we have had difficulties since then.

Careful with Ac/delco, it is not the company it once was
Lots of pirated off shore stuff kicking around. I went to NGK and never looked back.

The RC12YC is not nearly so commonly available as it once was, and for some reason, many parts stores do not stock Champion, or many Champion part numbers, any more.
