From talking to tractor pullers and other motor heads, there seems to be a misunderstanding about what a "hot" spark plug is. Some of us who didn't know better (me at one time) were mistaking what we thought meant "hot spark" for "heat range". My question is: As a motor steps up from stock to modified, what change needs to be taken in spark plugs and ignition? I was running a D21 Champion (or AC equivalent) in my stock MM U. As I increase air flow, compression, engine size, and RPM, should I use a cooler plug such as D15Y? Clue me in experts...

The best thing you can do is click on this link and read all 5 pages. Then you will know everything you need to know about plugs. My second hand info would confuse you.
