Well, had some issues with the plugs in the 51, so i rang Trickflow in the US this morning and they suggesrted I run Autolite 3923 plugs. Does anyone know where to get a set, or if there is an NGK equilivant.

Cheers
Brett

Check out an industrial parts supplier. I'm pretty sure they use these in a lot of forklifts.

Checking the summit page http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FRM-3923/ reveals they are a for ero trash, including Aston Martin, go figure.

Here is the list of cross reference from the Autolite to NGK plugs.
http://www.ngk.com/results_cross.asp?pi ... D=33&mfid=

Quite a few part numbers there. Time to get on the phone to the local parts shops and see what they have in stock.

you gotta remember these are to suit the trickflow twisted wedge heads as opposed to a 351. When Brett says he needs the autolites, there is a very distinct reason for it, a stock 351 will easily get away with the NGK's, the twisted wedge, needs long f**k.

http://www.amazon.com/Autolite-3923-Cop ... B000C1WB86 $2.15 each and I am sure that Amazon posts to OZ :)

These plugs look like the ones I put in Lucifa recently, they are 14mm x 18mm reach. I am sure I could find plugs for you Brett at work? admittedly we carry only Nippon Denso but have never had any complaint.

Ahh, Brett, Just a brain f@rt here, I think the APP3923 are also an Alfo Romeo plug, like for the 156 series motors.

Try an Alfa dealer.
Also thinking these are also standard fitment for Audi's as well like the A3 and A4 1.8T motors.

Check it out. Worth a look I thinks.

Lastly, and your personally gonna love this one Brett, I have found RareSpares Wagga stocks em, about $13 a plug! They also stock the iridium version as well, XP3923, $23 a plug.

Charades also ran them, the 94 -2000 charades that is.

check this list..Here

Surely any plug brand with a 14mm seat , heat range 3 and .750 inch reach would fit? That are the specs of the 3923 anyway.
