Spark plugs

Gents, what plugs do you recommend for a 836 sohc - with Cr29 carbs? It will be used for historic racing.

Denso iridiums, IX27, made the most power in my 836.
Take care,
David

David, do you have a back-to-back dyno test with no changes other than the standard NGK plugs for the Densos?

Yes, and I have different heat ranges. Ix24 vs IX27.  Want to try the IX24b extended tip at some point... but there's only so much time.
Take care,
David
