Garyfdl,

Too funny!

Did you and I attend the same one room country school in Penna years back. LOL I remember that walk to school and back.

I remember the days we would change plugs and point twice a year too. But,. today is different story. I am old 90 Chevy Sub that has almost 100,000 on her and the plugs are original and the performance is still great. So with this V10 I am going to stick with the old 100,000 mile change out recommended in the Operators Manual. I don't trust aluminum all that much, but the airplanes I flew for over twenty years had aluminum heads and jugs and never lost a spark plug! LOL. I do recall those heads had a lot more threads to deal with

I had changed mine on my last truck at 60K because I did not trust the 100,000 mile thing but the pluggs looked brand new. So 100,000K it will be.

Nah I went to a 1/2 room school in WI (the district couldn't afford the other half). Did live in PA for a while in the early 80's, in the bourgeoning metropolis of Riegelsville (upper Bucks Cty). Also did a lot of business in the P'burg to State College area
