  • Yet another type of spark plug....silver.

    http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ACC-AP308S/

    Now it says that the core is silver AND the tip is silver. I know that silver is a better conductor than copper, but does it really make that much of a difference to justify the price? They are more than Iridium plugs, also what is the longevity of these plugs? Anyone know?

    haha, 70 bucks for a single plug. That's insane.

    Is it possible that the bigger spark you get from silver can increase gas mileage by making more efficient use of the fuel delivered?

    I wonder how long they last.

        oh I didn't even notice that.

        I think I used to pay like 10/plug when I ran zex plugs in my turbo car.

          Well, I was willing to be the guinea pig for these plugs...but summit was sold out. So I was just gonna buy NGK's and they were sold out of those plugs too, which is what i normally buy. So I went to walmart and got some autolites on the cheap. Maybe next time....
