what sort of power you running m8? I had C57 in the saf it ran ok BUT when I put the C59 in(when it went for a power run) the difference was and was told that unless your running over 500bhp C57 would be fine.

Hi...take this advice....use the RST plug which is an 071 Ford still do them i think if not see Mike R..THIS is the ultimate Cossie plug upto 450BHP and cheap as chips...i have tested Champion 57's and 59's plus NGK 9's all shite and not a patch on the very cheap RST plug...i nearly cryed when the 601 was deleted then the 701......the 071 keeps the plug legend alive..although i THINK these are also soon to meet its maker

I know that there was a batch of Champion plugs a few years back that were dodgy but I have never suffered with them
