426's? Probably one of the last motors I would ever derby. In any one of its forms.

I you sure it was a 426 Hemi and not any one of the many other hemis? That seems just f-ing crazy to derby a motor worth money times more than a car is worth.

What plugs are best for the 318. I just finished a rebuild of a 318 that has 77,000 cruising miles on it and was wondering what be best.
-Thanks
