BUREQP7 for leading
BUREQP9 for trailing
They don't require gapping, but do need alittle anti-seize on the threads. You can get platinum plugs which I was told should last longer, but I'm not convinced they're worth it.
They're not worth it. Run BUREQ9's X 4 all around.

Apologies, I know this isn't my thread but....
Except for reliability mods, I'm still pretty stock. I tried 9's all around but they seemed to start fouling a little sooner. Within a month or so the car just didn't seem to start quite as easy or idle as smooth, especially cold. I'm not talking anything dramatic, and no one else would probably even have noticed. But I was considering going back to 7s and 9s. What do you think?

Ahh IC. For fairly stock cars, I would run 7/9 combo. The 9's WILL foul out faster because they're the colder plug. I know EXACTLY what you mean by cold startups. They run like poopoo unless you have some type of ignition amplifier (MSD 6A is my favorite)

Thanks. That's what I thought but wanted to bounce it off someone knowledgable just to be sure.
