Re: [HSS] Head torque and spark plugs and NZ rally

Unknown

Head nut torque for the 7/16" studs on a '26 Hudson should be 55 lbs. As

far as I know you can only get 1/2" reach spark plugs nowadays, Champion D16

or equivalent. You used to be able to get D21 and D23's which were nlonger

reach, but were a very hot plug. There were 960 cars on the rally, but

very few Hudson or Essex unfortunately, including only two Super sixes.
