wraith Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Hi all putting a DOT head on my 1100 what plugs should I use? The standard 750 dot head plugs or the standard 1100 plugs? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
clivegto Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Never thought of that with my one, used standard b12 on a 1052. Quote Link to comment
Oilyspanner Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I was waiting for FBOB etc who've done a few of these to call by - but I'm pretty sure all the folks who've fitted dot heads continued to use 1100 or 1200 plugs - as CGTO. Running conditions are going to be very similar to the standard engine , slightly hotter because of the extra compression - but it's less than a point of compression (close to .5) and in a big bore going up 2 points you still normally use the standard grade plug . Good question though ! Quote Link to comment

fatblokeonbandit Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 No, gsxrj/k are much more agressive, less midrange but much more top end fun Quote Link to comment
