Regular copper. There is one post where someone used e3 plugs and something happened with either the electrodes or the tips burning off after a few hundred miles or so. I tried to search for it and post it, but I don't have the time at the moment. If you want to do some experimentation, do it with copper plugs.

i was going to get e3 too but they burn to hot for our engines there more for high rev and racing engines just be sure to get the right heat range for the engine you can get platinum or iridium plugs if you want some more kick just gap them properly
