Thread: SLP Header Installed

I emailed BRISK about what plug to use on a mildly modded 3.8l s/c V6 with about 11PSI, and got this response today:

Hi Lee,
the spark plug you need is Brisk Silver Racing G14YS. That is a spark plug specially designed for forced induction applications, nitrous or methanol injection.... and we have many vehicles with over 3500Hp running the Brisk Silver Racing plugs and setting world records. The LGS is excellent choice for N/A and stock boost forced induction applications. Your vehicle have powerfull ignition system and will handle the GOR14LGS plug at your boost level, but due to the higher boost and altered A/F ratio the lifespan of the plug will be relatively short.
Hope this info will help.

Best regards,
Chris

Hi Chris
yeah i sure will
do a scan for you...
I will put the scan on and do a long run with it
and post up the findings....

The plugs i just took out were installed in Sept 29th 2007
and were AC Delco 12568387 -- ITR 4A -- 15

I believe this is a stock plug for the GTP's..

The scan that is on here now was taken while sitting in the parking lot,
and was done as it just warmed up..
I will do a proper reading and post it up soon.

I will find out what plug the one guy is useing..
as he has alot of boost i believe around 10 or 12 PSI
But don't quote me on that as i am not sure..
and has a cam rockers et... he is in the 12 sec club so has
some work done.. --->He uses the same plugs GOR15LGS

we went for a long run tonight to Toronto which is about 135 miles
from here on the 401.
All i can say is wow awsome responce and power is right there.

As is it is hard to tell jumping from the AC Delco to these,
and would like to test the 104's and these to see the difference..

Thanks John

I would waste the time trying AL 104's they are just a plug and nothing special.
I never got a response to my second email about running their non resistor plugs. I remember these now. Last time I did the email thing with them I couldn't get consistant answers.

That is to bad..
I hate that when companys
will not answer questions or responces..
I'm going to give them a call also..

Thanks John

I think I'm going to call them. I like the idea of silver plugs because of their electrical and thermal properties. Of cousre copper has better properties than iridium and the iridiums seem to be a better plug for my car.
I'm going to call Brisk later today and find out why they recommended a non resistor plug for my car. Since I am a sparkplugaholic, I almost have to try something they offer in a silver.

You and I have something in common. I try just about all of them that come out. The most recent ones I tried were E3 plugs. I cant say they got a good test because one of the plugs failed on me. It shorted out which I dont think I have ever seen a plug do, but it shorted out internally.

Well is way to soon to be saying this,
But i have had the plugs in since Thursday
and i am still very much impressed....
Our gas milage around town has improved..
we were getting 21 to 22--- is is now holding at 25
for city driving.
Hwy driving was at 28 to 31 and now is 35.8
Traffic pendending...
The motor once it warms up is just awsome
and very smooth and can still feel the difference
in the power..

But like i said is still to early to be making judgement calls

None really unless you have fat forearms like i do...
then roll up them sleves

Losen up the front header first, then remove the dog bones
and roll the motor forward, Tie it forward to the front suport

If you are not sure of the fireing order then before you remove the plugs
tape them were they go.

They were pretty easy to install, and my only hard part was cutting the
pipe after the flex and installing the new flex...
I did go down to my local shop to put it up on the hoist
but that was because it was raining and $50.00 bucks compared
to laying on the ground in the cold and rain---> = $50.00 bucks
well spent
I was at first thinking i would have to remove the TB and such
but you will see as you go it is not that bad at all...
