WTB Splidorf Green Jacket Spark Plugs

Post by Tea_time_racer » Sun Jan 06, 2019 11:48 pm

I need for a period race car restoration Splitdorf Green Jacket spark plugs. A set would be nice, but one plug at a time works also. Looking for nice examples.

It's 1/2 inch pipe, for a Model T head. Looks like it has a longer reach than the one in your picture, so it's probably for a high head.

I sent a PM reply, but I'll repeat it here as well.

The reach is a bit variable depending on how tight you tighten the pipe threads, but the distance from the top of the threads to the bottom of the plug is 7/8 inch. :)

Talked to a Friend of mine Today. He has several Spltdorfs he will part with. I will see him Saturday and check out what he has against the spec's you provided and take pics accordingly.

Frank, Thanks for the heads up. Steve emailed me before, but they are not like the ones I am looking for. I need them to be like the above picture.
