Question Denso Iridiums (SVT)?

I am just curious of why your site has the ITV20 as the stock replacement for the SVT, but on the denso site http://www.densoiridium.com/find_par...s.php?id=16114
has the ITV24 listed for the SVT. It has been that way for a couple years and I have even called them before about it and they confirmed that the 24's are the right plug...
Could you please clearify this please.

Two heats ranges is a big difference!

We did that because we feel that a .6 difference in compression ratio doesn't require spark plugs which are three heat ranges colder.

This is why I hate using aftermarket plugs...

Dear CFM- I hope you know what your talking about because for that .6 compression ratio the stock zetec plugs (ITV20) burned ALL the valves in my head under prolonged stressful conditions and cost me about 5k in upgrades. Be careful about what your saying and selling...
I suggest OEM MOTORCRAFT PLUGS or Denso ITV24 ONLY*** (Dont mean to jack your thread at all CFM just trying to let everyone know the $$$$$$$$$$$$$ it cost me)

We sold a few Denso ITV24 to a few guys with stock svtf. They called back 6 months later saying they needed new ones since they foiled out.

The oem motorcraft plugs are used by powerworks on their supercharger kit.

People use the motorcraft copper, which would be similar to the ITV20 on turbo svtf. The Motorcraft copper plugs are hotter than the stock svtf plugs.

Someone needs to check the spark plug to see if it is the right heat range.

I have had the ITV20's for over a year now and have had no problems with them.
