in my eyes no. if you have an upgraded ignition sytem (mallory, msd, etc..) then maybe. but even then im sceptical. ive seen real strong cars runnning cheapo auto lites and have 0 issues.

I agree, I wouldn't bother buying them. Just go with a nice autolite plug

Just a gimmick if you ask me. I don't see how they could possibly help? The electrode is shrouded more on those plugs, so they might make igniting the mixture even more difficult. Run a standard copper plug as noted above and save yourself some money.

Yup I stick with the Autolite 25's at just over $1 each and laugh at the Honda guys that buy $12 iridium plugs hehe...
