See my earlier post about incorrect fitment. The centres only break due to incorrect fitment.

Ps, a 620bhp ATW LS1's spark plugs are under considerably less stress than a YB on greys and a T34.

Forgot the name/code of them but the 4x4 platinum plug served me well stg1 . switched to 071's and stuck with them as seemed no difference other than cost.

Aint the ik plugs Jay if you use the correct grade for the application with a proper ignition system. Have done a whole day on 109 doing Topspeed runs with no probs swap to pump then drive home. I have a CDI/4 coils with a 16v accuvolt.
