Champion N12YC Plugs

I have been given a set of these -they have been used, just as a spare set to get my VDP EFi running as the ones in the car get wet with the cranking of the engine.

However, I have noticed that the electrode is longer than the Denso W20EPR-U plugs that I currently have in the car. I assume they should be ok as the person I got them off breaks engines / parts.

Any advice appreciated.

Hi
How much longer? it could be an issue!

Another question to add to Mike's.

Is it the threaded section that's longer or just the electrodes.

Just the electrode - threaded portion is the same.

Unlikely to be a problem unless you have domed pistons.

However, these plugs would not ideally suit a tuned performance motor.

Will these be ok in a 9.75:1 compression engine? I believe the pistons are different.
