Each photo has its description at the bottom. All these plugs seal, and do not protrude too far in. The Rx-7 plugs get the closest, and would be the best for power as long as you don't need anything colder than a 9 NGK heat range. The bur9egv are available much colder, 10/11 etc.

Hey! I recognize those housings! I'm glad they got to "live on" beyond their useful life.

Notice the problem/difference between pic 2 and pic 4?

Yeah thanks for the housing :)

There is a big difference in spark plug reach, but the Rx-7 one still works. Its a tight fit, but there is room. This is the best pic I can get..

I am not real familiar with the board discussion on this, Dave just mentioned something about it yesterday and I got curious...

Yeah. You cut the trailing plug port seat out.
Can you cut directly down into the seat without destroying it on the other housing?
