BKR7E Plugs

So I'm out changing the plugs on my 2.2 from stock to BKR7E's, and the BKR's are significantly shorter than my stock plugs.

Is this right?

I thought most people used Zex plugs of some sort with using Nitrous. I am sure someone with a 2.2 will chime in here soon. Sorry I can't really Help you. I know those plugs were identical to my stock ones when I took them out.

Well Danny Leavelle used em on his 75 shot-fed 2.2 according to his timeslip on dragtimes, so i'm gonna go ahead and install em for now.

nope, the colder plugs are a precaution to prevent detonation

Well I drove the **** out of the car tonight screwing around in a parking lot.

The engine deffinitely has a SLIGHTLY different sound to it while idling.

Other than that I haven't noticed any changes on the ass dyno on normal N/A operation
