Hey guys. I was talking to my mechanic about getting new plugs for my motor when we do the H/C/I, and he said because I am installing GT40P heads that I needed plugs from an 86 mustang GT because they were "peanut plugs". He said he wasn't 100% positive, but he thinks that's what I need. Does anyone know exactly which Autolite plugs I need to put into GT40P heads? Thanks,
Rob

you could probably go to the parts store and ask for plugs from an 98 explorer 5.0 and they should fit, right? That's where the gtp heads come from.

That's what I thought, get ones for an Explorer V8. Are you sure on that part number 89stanglx?
