Well its about that time that I grab some new plugs and wires… I picked up some 8mm MSD heli-core wires today, and now I need some plugs. I was going to get NGK Iridiums, but they didnt have a part number for a ka24e. I have heard some not so great things about Iridium, mainly fouling. What would be the benefits to the Iriduim plugs though, compared to copper or platinum?

KA24E…Just get some cheap coppers and call it a day. Coppers work great in boosted engine which are under much more stess. Spend the money else where.

What would be the standard gap for a pretty much stock ka24e?
