I know NGK is a good quality plug. I am sure everyone has their preference, but if the plugs are for the engines Dave built for you, then I would stick with the plugs that Dave dyno'd your engines with. He has his reasons for what he uses....and they're usually not NGK's.

Are you bringing your engines back up to Dave's shop for a refresh???
