Ask Chad what he runs..>>OSP4<<
Just because OD package says medium, doesn't mean it's a med compared to OS, or other brands.. I would compare a 97T to say a OS P3 or hotter..Good Luck !
yeh i mean ive just seen to many o.s. plugs take dumps at the track .and have run od plugs to the point i changed them just for good measure because i felt like they had just been in there to long..now on the determining the od97t plugs were to hot ...how did you determine that ....i mean what were your effects on the engine ...and like what ambient temps was it outside ...chad had told me on pm he didnt know anyone who had run od plugs and to let him know how they worked .....just curious more than anything on how you read they glow plugs were to hot ..just so i will know what to look for ..thanks buddy ...

Also will be much more consistent in glow temp from plug to plug.. as for how we test glow temp on plugs, i can't get into that online..BUT WE DO! lol

thanks for the quick reply ...now when you get the patent on the super secret glow plug decoder ring then you mak esure and tell em zixxer came up with the name ...thanks again buddy ...and hey what ambient temp and humidity yall run in most of the time

Anyway... Here on the Northeast the temps in the summer are usually pretty hot, and humid...requiring a hott plug.. The P4 is usually good most of the time, but I'm pretty excited to try the new P5 this year on a nice clear day.. Good Luck !

birmingham,alabama.....we race locally here with alan burton ,shane keller ,scott porter, bradley seales ,morris spears ...in the summer its usually 80-90 deg f. and like 70 80 % humididty .....
