I have been using the B6L NGK plugs for 5 or 6 years. Still using the same plugs I put in.

My 59AB has been running on a set of Champion H11's for many years. They burn clean given the type of driving I do.

Tom O you are correct.I knew I was using an NGK plug but had to look to see they are the B6L ones.

The cross reference for the Champion H10 to NGK is B6L. The B4L is a slightly hotter plug, designed for slow speed driving and should work fine in a 59A engine. Here is a link to NGK's explanation of heat range. http://www.ngk.com.au/spark-plugs/technical-information/heat-range-explanation

I have NGK B4L plugs in my 8-BA and have had better luck with them than Champions. Also the Autolite 216 was better also.

The '36 Ford replys would be referring to a different plug or at least plug size if original engine. I have succeesfully used the NGK plug in 59 engine as originally post asked .I had problems with Champions as made today and also Autolites but NGK have held up last 8 years for me. Better replies may be from some posters who have the same engine 59 AB and put lots of miles on their vehicles like Old Henry or others.

Agree with Ken. Recently put a set of Champion D21 plugs into our '36. Work great.
