Original Spark Plugs?
« on: January 27, 2018, 09:27:36 PM »
I just removed these from my 67. I’m wondering if they are factory installed spark plugs? My guess is no but I wanted to check before tossing them. Thanks for your input.

Not original . About 3 decades too modern.

Thanks for the quick reply. I always hate to throw away stuff. These days if iits not factory or Ford, no sense in keeping it.

If they were new and you had a set they still would be useful for other things (firing up, running in and or breaking in an engine) but since they are used only other purpose that comes to mind is making a cylinder pressure appliance from one but not many used them and there are other ways to do the same thing
