The rust color probably from the >=104 oct I'm running.
Actually....heres one for ya.......
>= 3 of 4 plugs seemed loose to me. Perhaps under the extreme shack of this set up they loosened. Those Bosch plugs have some suspect gasket fittings....I've seen better.
Wouldn't loose plugs create misfire conditions? These are all new coils.
In fact, I put back some old, better looking Bosch plugs....torqued 'em down ~15ftlb (?)...sort of a hand lean, then a snug down. No misfires....hmmmm. Thoughts?

what do you think burns all that copper off those plugs!? haha. that's what i call power. plugs are cheaper than filling up with a full tank of race gas, isn't it?
you keeping the beast or what>?

Concerned that we don't know what happened. Maybe it's the plugs....all this time? Funny, always going for the hard fix when the simple stuff lies untouched.
Not sure I'd get my asking price...certainly no hurry. The sale was for my piece of mind. If the misfires are indeed no more than the plugs then alls good. In fact.....thinking of installing an adjustable cam gear to dial in a little more low end grunt
