Dave Homstad has raised the issue/question about installing one, or multiple, gaskets on their spark plugs, to try to orient the spark plug electrode, in the combustion chamber, so as to present an unobstructed flame-kernal, to the fuel/air mixture, via the intake/exhaust ports. Has anyone ever done this (can you recall the protocol, or, better yet, does anyone have a cylinder head lying around, that you can 'experiment-with', in this regard? And, yes, I'm aware of multiple-electrode plugs, that are designed to 'eliminate' this condition/problem. There's a good apark plug article in the "Winter" 2004 issue of Muscle Car Review, which is back in publication, by Primedia.
