ADDITIONS TO IRIDIUM RANGE
NGK have recently introduced iridium tipped spark plugs in colder heat ranges as well as shorter reach conical seat plugs. These new additions now cover many early model Commodores and Toranas, as well as engines that require colder plugs (ie high performance and racing applications). The conical seat plugs are also suitable for a number of Chevrolet engines.
As these parts have been manufactured for the American and Japanese markets you will notice that most part numbers now appear different . To assist your selection, we have included the new part number to order alongside the equivalent standard part number of the same dimension. (The Iridium part now becomes the performance option for the standard part listed.)
