None of my Clocked engines are what would be called your generic
off the shelf engines, off-road or on-road. The latest are set-up to run
there best with #7's or #8's and I'm not going to re-shim them to
take a chance on a #6 dropping a coil.
Oh well, Neal almost had me talked into giving, at least one of, your Werks products a chance.

God, say it ain't true or I'm not going to be able to sleep at nite now As you said, oh well... Run what you want, if you have a source for off-road specific plugs that are #7's or #8's keep on buying them. If you are using on-road plugs in an off-road application then you should be quite a bit more concerned about dropping a plug with those than about running a #6 buggy plug lol. I'm sure that you understand the difference in plug design/construction between on-road and off-road specific plugs so I'm not going to get into that. Either way though we make what we make and if it does not meet your requirements then I'm sorry, good luck and happy motoring.

Thanks for the complement.

I know about the different plug body lenghts, coil thicknesses and
lengths. After Neal advised me that the Werks line of glow plugs held
up so good and have been somewhat problem free. I thought they may
meet my criteria. But, I guess not. No hard feelings, but as usual, I got
the answer I somewhat expected to get.

Not sure which is the best motor of the two for a buggy and also the best pipe to get for run time.

Any information is greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

Can anyone help me out here?

Which is better suited to the buggy, the B5 or the B6 and a pipe to suit but more for fuel economy.

Cheers.

the clocked B6 on a 2058 is the best for the buggy...but the B5 will also work, but it is a little extreme IMHO !
