AC Delco Spark Plugs

Needing to know factory correct spark plug for 1963 Cadillac.  I assume it is either the AC-44 or AC-45 spark plug with the green rings but can someone let me know if this is correct and if so which one?  Thanks, Doug

It went on to say that they hope the CT6 will" further bury Cadillac’s old-school image in another area: its engine lineup. At least for the moment, there’s no V-8 to be found anywhere on the spec sheet".  EXCUSE ME- but what do they think made Cadillac THE…

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 Comments
