i believe i put it in my buddies motor in a pinch and it kept going.

All this BS about OD plugs is mostly user caused.

it is definitely not BS on my part.... I am a very capable tuner and I have nothing but issues with OD plugs in my modified engines....OD plugs are too cheaply made the coils cannot handle the loads I put onto them....I can barely make a OD last more then a tank or two, whereas a Werks will last upwards of 2 gallons in the same conditions........Also the tuning and runtimes are far superior on the Werks plugs...OD plugs seem to be far too hot to inside one of my engines.....But obviously OD plugs work in milder engines or they would not be so popular....
