So that says something about the wet chemistry within a big bore.

Has there been PMD heads that have investigated dual sparkplugs?

not like a 2nd spark plug doubles the HP, but that would be a funny on someone, someday.

Mark,
Not to say 2 plugs is not a good thing. But if I am reading how the test was done it shows a greater HP drop then is really there. Unless you advanced the timing when running one plug to optimized conditions.
