Spoke to Dennis today. I'll need new plugs for my new engine. I was running the Densos with the 180 thermostat. Dennis said he doesn't use Densos anymore and prefers a copper plug. He told me to use a Ford Lightning plug...but I don't remember the model number and couldn't write it down while I was driving and talking to him.
Until I'm able to talk to him again tomorrow, does anyone know what model of Ford Lightning plug he was referring to. Does "ADWS1200" ring a bell?

What happened to selling you MM with the blown engine? Was the knocking and tapping a spark plug issue?

If someone wants to buy it tomorrow, they can have it. But otherwise, I need to get back on the road. I'll put it up for sale with a brand new engine in it soon enough. Don't think it was a spark plug issue, but I will need new plugs regardless, and since I'm keeping the colder stat and the my tune, I need colder plugs....got all that?

It was probably a AWSF-22C, or AGSF-22C but I can't be sure. Stock heat range is 32 so 22 is one heat colder and 12 is two ranges colder. Sorry, not much help.
Matt Johnson
It was awsf-22c...thanks!

Correction...Dennis e-mailed me back. He suggests AWSFA12C gap of .52...

Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.

SP-505 can be found at your Ford dealer and anywhere that sells Motorcraft spark plugs. I can't explain why the Motorcraft website is behind.

Looks like it's back down into the city for Motorcraft parts. None of the auto parts stores around here carry them, and the dealer is closed by the time i get off from work.
Thanks for the info.
