a bloke i know has an EB 4.0lt head on his EF 4.0L.
My question is, Should this run the BRE527Y-11's (EB sparkplugs) or the BPR5EY-11 (EF sparkplugs)???
Thanks
David

its an EB head, therefore use the EB plugs (BRE572Y-11)
The EF plugs are not long reach plugs.

the plug position is the same on both heads.


so tell me, what do you use


EB GLI uses a denso J16ARU11
EB XR6 uses a W16EXRU

EF GLI uses a W16EXRU11
EF XR6 uses a W16EXRU

use what ever you like. it wont make much difference.
