It depends on more factors than just the heads what the right plugs are...
I used Autolite 23 plugs on my iron eagle 215cc heads on my old engine..

I have a set of the race plugs as they reccomend in mine but they are probably a step too cold for my casual street driving. I have purchased a set of stock Autolite plugs and will try them out when I get a chance. They look to have the same thread/reach/seat design.

If you check they data sheets on the Dart site for each head they recommend a plug. Doesn't mean it suits your particular application of course, but does give you a starting point.

AC R44T I looked inside the head before installing, the threads are about flush with the chamber. Joe
