Smile welcome - first question

Hi everyone!

So I'm reading my (new to me) copy of "Secrets of the Inner Circle" and the Maestro lists various "favorite" spark plugs:

W225T35
W200T35
W225T1

I have standard issue W6BC's which run fine, but wonder why they aren't mentioned.

So what do you use and how do they work?

Hello

Those are the old Bosch numbers from the 60´s.

Now with newer technolgy and material the sparks are tuned to work in wider specifications.

Back in the 60´s people used city and track plugs.

You can fpllow that path today by swaping to hoter ( city ) or colder ( race ) units.

Also very importanr on 356/912 is the correct lenght from the plug as the piston can run on it. Sometimes you need a secound ringgasket to shim the plug.

You also can mail H.P. about "updating" that subject.

Grüsse
