Any common (long body) medium or retracted gap plug in the same heat range works fine without the drama caused by the eyebrows. I get the racing NGKs free so it just makes me mad as hell that the eyebrow gets in the way if I want to try a different plug. So, I machine them off. Also, most of those same heat ranges are available in 5/8 hex plugs, and in that case the eyebrow matters not at all. The race plugs are NGK R6725-115, and are probably way too cold even for aircraft use. You would need a real ignition system to keep them clean. Plus they are $25.00 each. Champion N86=B9EGV Champion N82=B10EG Motor cycle shops have this type of plug in stock. Used in 2 cycle dirt bikes. Lynn E. Hanover
