what spark plugs to use for high speeds?
Hey, I have a 1997 S/CL 600 v12 6.0l
Today I went on Alldata to see what spark plugs I should use when I noticed Mercedes noted "use Bosch FR9DC plugs, Maximum allowable speed 100mph " I asked some people, why only 100mph? Their response was if you go over the specified speed with certain spark plugs you could burn a hole in the pistons. Don't want that for my m120![EEK!](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
What type of plugs should I use if I want to go over 100mph?
Florida
Alt : Sea Level
Temp : 70 - 95
Humidity : 10,000% (you'd believe it if you work outside in the Floridian summers)
Thanks for any input
