autolight 25's for headers because they are shorter than most plugs

Rapidfire from AC Delco
Did you know that the letters A & C in AC Delco, stand for Albert Champion? DELCO was originally Detroit ELectric COmpany?
Now, you know....if you didn't already know it?

I run an AC Delco R44T in my 350 motor. Step up from R45TS. The R45TS is for your normal daily driving stop and go plug. The R44T is really rated for trucks and more for highway driving.

The R44T is actually a step down, in temperature. It's a cooler running plug better suited for motors that run for extended periods.
