my motor went out in my 8ight(mach 427) and so im using a GO .21 that i got with a my 8ight-t because i got 2 other .28 with the truggy. And today i installed the clutch on the engine, put it in the buggy and try 2 start and it wouldnt start, so i played with the tune and checked the plug and it was fine

BUT i noticed it was a turbo plug, didnt think anythin of it until tonight. The buggy was runnin great, temps were fine, idle was a little irratic but i had an SMALL air leak in my carb so i sealed it up and now it is dryin.but i was lookin at the box the guy gave me and it says its the normal engine not the turbo, so will runnin this turbo plug do any damage

a turbo plug wont even fit into a non-turbo engine...

If it has a turbo plug in it then its a turbo engine.. not only does the non turbo plug need a gasket to seal it the size is different. The turbo plug has a larger hole than the non turbo head so it one will not fit into the other.

NO ...

I prefer the turbo over the standard for my engines.

That engine could have been a normal plug engine originally, but the previouse owner could have change the head button to a turbo one. Might explain why the box says it's a normal plug engine. You will want to keep the turbo plug set-up because they make more power than the normal plug.
