The Accel Shorty plugs are hardly any different than a normal plug... like a 1/4" shorter max. The problem is the headers are for slant plug heads... and you're using straight plug heads.... the straight plug headers would extend further out before making the bend downward. Try a narrower boot and then run a sock on it as well -- those boots are good - but they're also super fat. |

I think I would have been ok with 1 5/8 tubes, the 1 3/4" and less than optimal clearancing on that tube didn't help, thankfully it's the only one with issues. I can't believe you didn't angle plug heads in stock. :D
I measured an NGK plug I had and it was .25" longer than the Autolite, so the Accel at best is 1.75" which won't help. MSD offers these race boots, I'll get both angles and see which provides the most clearance. http://www.msdignition.com/Products/...t,_2/Card.aspx http://www.msdignition.com/Products/...0,_2/Card.aspx I may use the Moroso sleeves because the Heatshield Products sleeves are double layer which could be an issue. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mor-71993 |
How about a peice of header wrap safety wired on that tube in that spot? I may have a peice here or can get one. I may also have a couple of those plug boots

Hopefully the angle boots work to keep the wire runs clean and since they sell the boots and sleeves in pairs I might as well do #3 cylinder since the boot just touches. Here's my temp fix. http://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-Z...-Z6dxz3X-M.jpg Really appreciate the offer, but I already have a list pending at Summit so I'll just add the boots. Besides you need all the time you can get to work on your brakes. :D Rev says.........focus on your brakes Jerison! http://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-W...-WWMpfWm-L.jpg |
Tell REV I'm on IT :hello:

It feels so wrong beating the ceramic coating off a new header. Wish Doug's would have pinched that tube .25" in the right spot. :(
http://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-7...7vW4zGh-XL.jpg Had to lay of the front fender and brace on the air cleaner to get the right angle, tight swing area, small hammer, 300+ blows equals decent forearm pump too. :sieg: |
