I had the same problem and the Taylor fix works.

With the dipstick I am using it made the #7 plug wire touch the header. I have had no problems since I put them on.

 

if u can take the header off i can re-route the tube (cut&weld) just enough to clear them. $20 if interested.

 

I think I'm gonna try wrapping the header tube up some more, looking for a shorter plug. I already have the Taylor Plug boot protectors.

I tried an accell 90* boot....Before I had the FRPP 45* boots. They burnt up worse than the Accells did.

I think the shorter plug may work....but I may also try fabricating up a heat shield of some sort. It might work if I do all of this together.

 

ding header with hammer at you level of performance what does it matter


its a ford heat n beat

 

ps you can use your neons to heat the headers

 

u want some carbon fiber to wrap it. ill sell you a yard of it $20

 

Tommy,.. get some rest bro. I was just bustin your chops.

I had a similar problem like his and its the damn headers and how close the plugs are to the exhaust ports.

I'm reading up on everything I can get my hands on. The money I'll be laying out on my build,.. my wife will divorce me if I blow it up.

show him how to use it as a noid light

 

LOL Now THIS would be cool.

"Tiffiny" is right, at my "performance level", I don't think it'll matter much. Maybe 2-6 hp. My car only makes about 270 hp or so...maybe 320 ftlbs of tq.

But I'm gonna try the header wrap, shorter plug and boot sleeves first.

 

Just wondering.....who's ass do you pull some of your guesstimations out of?
