If you go to Autozone's website I just went thru their automated search and it spit out 10-12 choices. However to qualify that they still list the R43 as the recommended AC Delco plug they also list the R45S.

It's somewhere to start though... Dave

I ran the R45S AC Delco plugs in my 327/350 motor for about 4 years with no problems. The motor was for the most part stock during that time and many others are running these same plugs with no problems. I have had to change plugs now but that is related to the AFR 195 heads that I'm running on the motor currently.

I list Raleigh as where I live because most would never know where Clayton is. I live just outside of Raleigh so the next time you are in town come by and have a beer. Make sure you come during the summer on the 3rd Saturday and we can cruise up to Grill 57 where we usually have about 200 plus cars...

Since the AC 44 & 45 plugs aren't avalible , just the resistor plugs, I use NGK B4 (stock # 3210). It is a non resistor plug with the heat range very close to a AC45. I use them in my 56 210HP and my 64 300HP.
