There’s a guy who was pretty well known in the import/ Honda world who would always ship out plugs with the purchase of one of his cam shafts and he modified his plugs. He was one of the few people in the industry who liked to spark discussions and get peoples minds going and he really knew his ****. He swore by the small mod to the tip of the spark plug like that and ever since I’ve been doing mine the same way. Definitely worth the few minutes it takes to do with a grinder.

Bottom of the strap over the electrode you keep sharp and the tops you round the edges. Sharp edge will make the spark jump easier and the rounded edges help mitigate and direct the sparks jump right where you want it. You’re making the spark plug listen to the picture you’re trying to paint rather than allowing it to likely jump anywhere onto the strap. A more focused spark jump creates a a more uniform flame front that propagates more evenly thus producing more power vs a uneven flame front that fights against itself.

Like C4 vs HME....they both go boom but C4 has more uniform crystals and better boom vs HME has uneven and unpredictable crystals which don’t pack as much punch
