Put there by V8D or Mark Adams I guess. Are people still running these? no issue with them and not 100% on iridium TBH.
Any thoughts?

I always ran 7's on my turbo engines, projected nose. If the car starts and runs fine at low rpm's without fouling the plugs then that would seem good.

yes, runs fine.. there was a phase a few years back, people going to temp 6 rated plugs and also the extended nose plugs, but these never let me down and are a nice colour after a run.. guess I can buy the same again

BPR6ES is a popular choice if you run a search but if those plugs work for you then that’s fine.
The 7s did foul pretty quickly for a lot of people.

Always had B7ECS plugs fitted in my Griff 500 and never had an issue in over 20 years wink

OK, I'll order the same again please.. next one is where to get them? reading a few weeks ago that over 30% of the pulgs on sale a fake and can damage your engine yikes

Anyone bought from The Green Sparkplug company at all, are they to be trusted? how can you tell a fake as it looks very hard.
differance is £3.67 a plug to Opie oils at £6.

I guess I'd trust Opie so will end up buying from there.

V8 Developments charge £33.60 for a set of 8, but suspect VAT and postage would be on top of this.

The usual TVR parts suppliers seem to charge around £6 each, plus VAT and postage.

The Green Spark company are first Class, founded by Tim Green who is a keen car enthusiast especially Vintage cars where original and or decent repro parts are even harder to source than for Classics. I have dealt with them for years and if a rare problem arises they are quick to sort it.. My first port of call for any ignition related component, keen prices as well.
