E3 Sparkplugs
Has anyone used them? They are somewhat new and kind of hard to find for me actually.
Horsepower TV did a simple dyno swap and gained 5.5 horsepower and burnt less fuel.
The dyno comparison was against what looks like Bosch

and its the second video, with the yellow picture preview.

The only plug to run in an older Ford is a motorcraft. The bosh platinums tend to create a rough idle, and the E3 plugs are snake oil. What else did they do on HP to make that car gain? Cold air intake, new fuel filter?

2. It was a engine dyno with "Plug A", a cool down and swap to E3 plugs, and a second dyno. The plugs produce the gain.

I've run these in pulling tractors because normally I would have to index the plug (on a flathead, you make a mark on the outside of the plug that allows you to point the plug gap towards the piston for more power). However, I got the same power with the e3 without the trouble of indexing the plugs, and Ive been running them for a very long time with no loss of performance.

new "magic plug" yay...
honestly, a plug is a plug is a plug. the 5.5HP gain is well within the "noise" of a dyno, and honestly that gain is prob because the bosch were used plugs that were done. try it yourself, run a dyno on the plugs you run now, swap to new plugs, and see the HP "gain" from your new plugs. its all marketing, and they are nothing more then snake oil. if you believe that these work better then any other plug, then i have another system that will save you fuel...

Bosch plat's are worthless IMO, I have had several customers over the last few years that did their own tune up and got the Bosch platinums as reccomended by the local Autozone counter guru. Put in some autolites and problem solved. Motorcrafts are good in fords, champ's in dodge, ngk in japs, and Bosch in german cars only. Autoltes seem universal in my experience
